max-width: 100%;"/> <strong>Welcome to Auburn University Libraries and War Eagle!</strong></p> <p>It’s great to have you at Auburn University. We’re glad you chose to become a member of the Auburn Family and be assured that the Auburn University Libraries will always be an important part of your Auburn experience as you pursue your studies.</p> <p>Whether you need research assistance or just a table to study at a few minutes between classes in the Mell Classroom Building, AU Libraries is here to help.</p> <p>AU Libraries is a place for all students, faculty, and staff to get the resources they need to succeed in learning, teaching, and research. It includes collections, technology, software, and so much more. A group of very enthusiastic and highly competent library faculty and staff are also here to support you!</p> <p>The Auburn University Libraries consist of one main library, Ralph Brown Draughon Library, and two branch libraries, the <a href="https://lib.auburn.edu/ladc/index.php">Library of Architecture, Design and Construction</a>, and the <a href="https://lib.auburn.edu/vetmed/index.php">Cary Veterinary Medical Library</a>. The Ralph Brown Draughon Library has more than 4,800 study seats and is open during all the most popular study <a href="https://www.lib.auburn.edu/hours/index.php">hours</a> seven days a week during fall and spring semesters to maximize access opportunities for busy students.</p> <p>AU Libraries strives to offer the latest collections and technology to allow you to thoroughly research any topic, and then present that research in a manner that is sure to impress. The AU Libraries’ <a href="https://lib.auburn.edu/irc/instructional-content.php">workshops</a> will help you learn to get the most from the tools you’re given – and Auburn provides many tools.</p> <p>The <a href="https://lib.auburn.edu/circulation/index.php">Circulation Desk</a> is the place that many visits to the library start and end. You can check out books, laptop computers, or reserve items.</p> <p>The Research and Instruction department is filled with <a href="https://libguides.auburn.edu/subjectlibrarians">subject specialist librarians</a> that cover every subject taught at AU. They can help make your research both more efficient and thorough. Book a consultation by contacting the librarian that covers your subject. Faculty may also arrange for <a href="https://www.lib.auburn.edu/researchinstruction/">Information Literacy</a> instruction for their classes. And on the rare occasion we don’t have a recommended research item in our 7.5 million volume collection, the <a href="https://www.lib.auburn.edu/ill/index.php">Interlibrary Loan</a> department can often obtain it from the numerous other research libraries in our lending network.</p> <p>When it comes time to present your project, the <a href="https://www.lib.auburn.edu/irc/">Innovation and Research Commons (I&RC)</a> can help you present it with a myriad of media to make your project unforgettable. The I&RC can offer help with the Adobe Creative Cloud that is provided free to all students. The I&RC also has tech lending to let you use the latest equipment to prepare your project. The I&RC MakerSpace includes 3D printing, laser cutting, electronics benches, sewing machines, and wood cutting. Also in the I&RC is a Virtual Reality lab and full-featured audio and video editing suite, while the large-format printing and scanning make producing posters easy.</p> <p>It is impossible to tell you all the things that AU Libraries can do to enrich your Auburn experience here, so I encourage you the explore our <a href="https://www.lib.auburn.edu/">website</a> and discover all the ways that we can help you. And should you need to talk to us about any problem or great experience you’ve had at the AU Libraries, please <a href="https://lib.auburn.edu/contact/">contact us</a>.</p> <p> </p> <p>Dr. Shali
