"Libraries remind us that truth isn't about who yells the loudest, but who has the right information. Because even as we're the most religious of people, America's innovative genius has always been preserved
because we also have a deep faith in facts."

— Barack Obama, 44th President of the United States

Happy New Year! This month, Dean Nitecki looks to the year ahead, reflecting on what the post-pandemic campus may look like and how the Libraries can help shape Drexel’s own post-pandemic “new normal."

The Drexel Libraries is excited to welcome students, faculty, and staff to our physical (and virtual!) spaces for the winter 2021 term. Learn more about our new on-campus services, including scanning, mobile printing, and access to desktop computers.




Later this month, the Libraries will launch Wednesdays@Noon, a new webinar series that connects Drexel researchers, faculty, staff, and students with the Libraries’ expertise, tools, resources, and services.



In December, Drexel Professor Usama Bilal kicked off the 2020/2021 ScholarSip event series with a 'food for thought' session titled "Inequities as a Cause and a Consequence of COVID-19." Read a recap of the event or watch the recording via YouTube.
