LIBRARY MISSION

Mission and Role of the Library 

The mission of McGrath Library is to promote lifelong learning, discovery, digital equity, and research. McGrath Library serves as an extension of the classroom, as well as a central information hub for learning and research for Hilbert’s students, faculty, and staff. The Library promotes intellectual growth and creativity by facilitating access to robust information resources and teaching the effective evaluation and use of information. New and emerging technologies are constantly sought out in the support of the delivery of services and information. McGrath Library provides flexible physical spaces and seeks to support and enhance the teaching, research, and service of Hilbert College.

McGrath’s librarians continually collaborate with teaching faculty to support the College’s academic curricula. The librarians at McGrath are dedicated to service, motivated by the College’s Franciscan values, and are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion in all aspects of the Library. Every person receives equal access to resources and is treated with respect, honesty, and integrity. The delivery of efficient and informed service from Library Staff is critical to the Library's mission. The Librarians ascribe to the belief in free, open, unrestricted exchange of knowledge, ideas, and information.
