I am pleased that you have found the University Libraries' web site. The faculty and staff of the University Library, Baugh Biomedical Library, the hospital libraries, the USA Archives, and the Baldwin County campus are happy to invite you to use any and all of the libraries' electronic, print, and other resources and services that we make available to the students, staff and faculty of the University of South Alabama. Rapid technological advances over the past two decades have improved our ability to meet our goals by offering remote, electronic access via the Internet.  Our basic mission, however, has never changed --- we continue to support the curricular, research, and service needs of our users by providing the highest quality archives, reference, interlibrary loan, instructional, circulation, cataloging, acquisition, and other services possible.  We welcome your comments about any of our services, collections, and personnel, or how we might better serve you.
