The Mathewson Library is a major center of student activity on campus. This site is meant as a complement to that purpose. It is your one-stop-shop for everything digital the library has to offer from scholarly resources and databases to ebooks and newspapers. Our curated Research Library Guides are where you will find finetuned information on your classroom projects and other initiatives on campus--all with the common goal of instilling in Bells a college-level research mindset.
