About your Library
The Catholic Central Library is managed by a professional librarian who can assist you with all your reading and research needs. The library is open from 7:30 until 3:30 but closed between 11:30 and 12:30 daily.
Your Library is the place to be when you want a quiet area in which to work or read. It is a large and inviting space with worktables, study carrels, and a lounge area for comfortable reading. There are over 10,000 books available for loan, an extensive reference collection for use in the library, several on-line databases for research, and Chromebooks available for use (when not booked by a class).
