Geisler Library

Central's library was established when the college was founded in 1853. Its mission is to provide students with the information they need to achieve their highest academic potential and to help them acquire research skills necessary for life-long learning. In 1974, library services moved into the award-winning Geisler Library facility which seats nearly one-fourth of the student body. The ground floor houses a cafe and humanities faculty offices. The second floor houses the library reference, circulation, reserves, interlibrary loan, computer workstations and curriculum library of 5,000 items supporting teacher education programs, a music library containing 4,000 music scores and anthologies, and private study and seminar rooms equipped with computers. The library’s media center is located in a building just east of the Geisler facility.
