The Thomas J. Shanahan Library offers facilities, resources and services in support of the instructional and cultural programs of the College. The library is dedicated to providing information and instruction as an integral part of students’ total educational experience.

The Library’s Online Public Access Catalog and Electronic Resource Management system have many advanced features that allow users to go directly to e-books and full-text journals, on or off campus. Both the catalogue and over 70 full-text databases are accessible through MMC’s web pages on the internet. In the past year the library has significantly increased its e-book collection, and now offers over 100,000 e-books that are directly accessible through the library website.

The library houses dedicated PC research workstations, general PC and Mac workstations, and an editing room with Macs fully loaded with design and digital production software. All computers feature the Microsoft programs Excel, Word, and PowerPoint. Printing and copying are available on both floors of the library.
