Library

The FIDM Library is a curated collection of materials supportive of all our creative and business majors. The collections include over 25,000 books and eBooks, 200 magazines, and 40 research databases as well as several trend forecasting reports for market intelligence. In addition, newspapers, trade papers, scholarly journals and video resources support the curriculum. 

A selection of textiles and material swatches are available to collect and use for inspiration and class projects, and the library subscribes to the Material ConneXion® database for research information on over 7,000 innovative and sustainable materials. 

Our team of librarians and specialists provide instruction, reference, and research support to students, faculty and alumni. The library catalog and research databases are online and accessible to students while on or off-campus, on any device, ensuring that the Library’s resources are readily available to inform and inspire.
