The Giorgetti library serves as the primary reading, research and study center on campus. It also serves as a general resource to the surrounding community. The library is fully automated to provide computerized access to the library’s resources, both in print and non-print form. The Giorgetti Library is located on the first floor at the west end of St. Joseph Hall.
Students may search scholarly bibliographic databases to locate either journal articles or books for their research. Complete Internet Access for additional research information is available in the library and computer lab. The internet connects users to VALS (Vermont Automated Library System) which provides access to the holdings of major research libraries in Vermont.
The library maintains a current collection of over 58,000 volumes. The library’s total collection of both print and non-print material consists of over 82,000 items. The library maintains three special collections (The Kyran Murray McGrath Irish Studies, the Sister St. George Vermont Collection, and a Curriculum Resource Library). Material in the Irish Studies and Curriculum Resource Library is available for circulation, while the Vermont Collection is for library use only. Also housed in the library is a collection of resource material from (GRASP), or Greater Rutland Asian Studies Project. The library subscribes to 84 periodicals, and has access to over 29,000 full-text journals available through our electronic databases.
The library also maintains over 3,000 volumes of back issues of periodicals on microfiche. A full-text collection of ERIC Research Documents from 1980 to the present is available via our EBSCO host electronic databases. The library has over 25,000 non-print items. These include audio cassettes, audio-visual kits, microfiche, slides and video recordings in DVD and VHS format.
