UA-PTC Libraries Mission
The primary mission of the UA-Pulaski Technical College Libraries is to provide services and materials that support and reflect the mission of UA-Pulaski Technical College. The Libraries function in support of the academic, distance, vocational, and technical curricula by providing an array of information resources in a variety of formats. They serve as an educational facility where students and faculty may learn methods of accessing, retrieving, and evaluation information.
