Library

We at the CWC Library are here to help.  It's not just our job, but our passion.  No question is too small, silly, or out-there...we have heard a lot and if we don't know the answer we hopefully can help you find it.

The CWC Library located in Main Hall 109 is the main library for the campus of Central Wyoming College, serving our students, instructional faculty, and campus staff, as well as the community of Riverton, Fremont County, and our multiple Outreach Centers in Lander, Wind River, Dubois, and Jackson. 

The Library provides over 30,000 physical materials specially selected to serve the students and faculty of Central Wyoming College. The book collection is supplemented by more than 200 databases and 1,200 electronic journals. Online resources are accessible 24/7, off-campus with a CWC username and password. In addition, because of Wyoming’s unique consortium of libraries we provide access to any book, database, or electronic items throughout the state using interlibrary loans services.

Your CWC student ID will serve as your library card. It should be active when you start school, but come into the library to test it out and check out your first book. This card is valid at the majority of libraries in the state of Wyoming as long as you are an enrolled student.

The CWC Library is also an excellent place for individual or group study with study rooms available by reservation, individual study carrels, and collaborative tables. Many of our study rooms come equipped with whiteboards and TV screens with HDMI cords (upon request) for easy group sharing. Desktop computers are spread throughout the library with printing, scanning, and copy services available.

Need research help? The CWC librarians are also available to assist patrons with writing, research, or editing of class projects. Please stop by the library between the hours of 8 am – 5 pm Monday – Friday or schedule an appointment to learn about the other instructional programs we offer. Students can also contact a librarian at any time via email at librarian@cwc.edu.

Inside the Library you will also find the Test Center (see below), the campus’ main Lost and Found, and the Free Table.
