Welcome and Getting Assistance

This guide points to library resources that will assist you in completing your papers and research for courses throughout your time at Hiram. 

We're here to help!

Here are some ways to get assistance:

Contact Janet Vogel, your class librarian. I can be contacted by email (vogelj@hiram.edu), or stop by my office in the library - after the library renovation opens, my office is right next to the elevator on the 1st floor.  Come in any time for help. I typically work M-F 8:30-5:30. 

Contact any of the librarians using library@hiram.edu.

Contact the Circulation Desk via phone at (330)569-5489, or in-person for questions related to your account, finding call numbers, etc.

Are you a first year or transfer student? Never used the Hiram College Library? Before you check out books, we need to update your library account with the barcode on the back of your student ID. 

Please visit the Library Services desk on the lower level any time with your student ID and ask to have your barcode added to your account. You can then check out physical items and OhioLINK eBooks. 

If you are unable to access the library building, please email library@hiram.edu with your name, phone number, Hiram Student ID number (on the front of your ID), and the number on the barcode on the back of your ID. We will update your account within 1 business day.

  • Are there different rules for borrowing? Yes. Items have different loan periods, renewal limits, daily fine rates and replacement costs than the items you borrow from Hiram College Library.
