Library Resources
We are so excited to partner with our public libraries and to integrate our public libraries into CU. Utilizing the Providence Public Library makes lifetime learning easy and accessible for our students and graduates through the resources that already exist in our local communities!
All books required this semester are available for check out from the Providence Community Library’s South Providence Library, located at 441 Prairie Avenue. Students can check out books using their CU ID information. Call 401-467-2617 for more information!
