Smiley Library
Smiley Memorial Library has long endeavored to provide high quality educational support and to maintain an accessible, academically current collection of materials and electronic resources to meet the needs of the CMU students. The library strives to promote lifelong learning, information fluency, social responsibility and service, and to serve as a cultural and intellectual resource for the university and the surrounding community. We are a great source for music, movies, children’s books, newspapers, magazines and much more.
