Popular Reading Collection

Need a break from reading textbooks? Check out one of the paperbacks from our new popular reading collection for some relaxing reading. This new collection is located near HL108, and a list of titles is available in the course reserves under the professor name “Popular Reading”.

Looking for downloadable audio books or popular fiction?

Monmouth Public Library (MPL) offers both – and all you need to get a MPL card is your WOU ID! Through Library 2 Go, your MPL card lets you download best selling digital audio titles 24/7 to your PC and transfer audio books to your MP3 or burn onto CD for listening on-the-go. MPL is also a member of CCRLS, which gives you access to the collections of the public libraries in Polk, Marion, and Yamhill counties – all delivered to Monmouth.

Chat live with a librarian

There is a new way to get assistance with your questions from WOU librarians! Use the Ask a Librarian chat window in the left-side links on every library page. You don’t need your own screen name. If you prefer to use a screen name, you can add us to your buddy list using the information here.

When WOU librarians are offline, this link changes to L-net, which is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Library Website Changes

The WOU Library has converted its web pages to reflect the current WOU template. This is a cosmetic change; the content and organization remain the same. For those faculty linking to the library on their personal pages, please change your links to: https://wou.edu/provost/library/index.php
University Computing Services will be ensuring that links to the library on the campus web site are changed to reflect new addresses. If you happen upon a broken link on the library web site, or a link to an older version of a library page, we encourage you to email: Bryan Miyagishima with the information.
