Library Services

Eastern is committed to supporting the College's mission as a state supported institution of learning by providing convenient, effective access to high quality library services.

Online Library Services

Eastern provides access to online library resources through an agreement with Southern WV Community and Technical College (Southern). Through online library services, students can obtain assistance from a professional reference librarian. The reference librarian can assist students with finding library resources and completing research projects. 

To schedule an appointment with a reference librarian or for special assistance, Eastern students must contact Kim Maynard, Director of Southern’s Library Services. Ms. Maynard may be contacted by phone at (304) 896-7345 or email at kimm@southernwv.edu.

1. Find the material you want to borrow on Southern’s Online Library Catalog: https://southernwv.booksys.net/opac/southernwv/#menuHome

2. Please return your requested materials five days before its due date. Eastern is responsible for return shipment and to avoid overdue fines, you must return your requested materials early. You are responsible for all late fees, special mailing fees or replacement costs for materials not returned, and a hold is placed on your student record for past due materials.
