The library is a vital part of the academic program at USC. It serves as an informational and learning resource center to support the overall curriculum goals of the University.

The Library is divided into three main sections:

1. The Main Collection: Students are free to browse and select material from the main collection on the first floor of the library. The loan period for this collection is three weeks.
   
2. The Reference Collection: The reference or ‘R’ collection includes subject dictionaries, encyclopedias, commentaries, directories, concordances, yearbooks, manuals, bibliographies, atlases, indexes, newspaper clippings and material that can only be consulted in the library but not checked out.
   
3. The Reserve Collection: Books are placed in the Reserve Book Collection to provide required and supplemental reading in connection with class assignments. This system is intended to ensure the accessibility of limited but vital material to a large number of students. Reserve items are to be used in or out of the library for a specified time period.
