Library


Looking for answers?

Ramona's library is one of the best places on campus to find them. Browse the collection to conduct research on your own, or get help from an experienced and friendly librarian.

Need a break?

The library is a good place for that, too. Grab a book, curl up on a beanbag chair, take a quiet moment for yourself and enjoy the view of the San Gabriel Mountains.

Love to read?

Pick up a new book, one of more than 20,000 in our collection. Share your passion with your friends in the Ramona Book Club. Help a child learn to read with Book Buddies at a nearby elementary school. Or plan or participate in the annual Poetry Café. The Library is a vibrant hub for readers.

"When selecting materials for the Library, I keep in mind what is taught; how the students learn; what students should know; and, what students want to know. The collection is rich with new, award-winning fiction and non-fiction titles that provide students with a broad view of the social, environmental, economic, and cultural issues in the world."
Aniko Tegtmeier, Librarian
