Renewing your Library Card

State Library cards expire every few years. If you are a faculty or staff member who is having trouble using your State Library card, please contact the State Library.

What do they have?

The state library has some of the same resources the MU library has, and some additional ones. The list is constantly changing, but here are just a few that might interest you:

  • PA Newspapers
  • American State Papers (1789-1838)
  • Sanborn Digital Maps for PA (1867-1970)
