Mission Statement
College of the Holy Cross Libraries


The mission of the Holy Cross Libraries is to support the information needs of the College, a Catholic liberal arts undergraduate institution which, in the Jesuit tradition, pursues excellence in teaching, learning and research. We are dedicated to the rich intellectual traditions of the past and the informational promise of the future. The Libraries adhere to national standards and practices of librarianship, ensure freedom of information and the right to privacy, and lead the College in integrating technological innovations into the scholarly process. We strive to create an environment of mutual respect that nourishes personal growth and supports the educational, instructional and cultural needs of the community by providing quality services, appropriate scholarly collections and equitable access to resources here and beyond our walls. We affirm our mission through each policy and service as we assist the members of our community in gaining knowledge and developing skills in order to enrich their own lives and the lives of others.
