Library Learning Hub Mission

The mission of the Helena College Library Learning Hub is to enable student success in the programs and degrees offered at the college.

Professional librarians and library staff, along with the Academic Coach and Tutor Coordinator, will achieve this mission by collaborating with faculty and the library community in the selection, purchase, and creation of information resources and services; and by providing tutoring and information literacy instruction targeted to the curriculum. In addition, the Library Learning Hub offers an active community learning space as well as quiet space for study and inquiry, fostering the concepts of lifelong learning, intellectual freedom, and cultural enrichment.

The Library Learning Hub achieves this mission through its General Operations Policy.
