Reference Questions are the best way to start your research. The Cooper Union Librarians are available to assist you in the research process, share resources, and pull materials from the non-circulating collection.
Feel free to stop by or call the reference desk during open hours!
The Center for Writing is now in the Library! The Center for Writing offers support and feedback on all types of written and spoken communication for the students, staff, and faculty at The Cooper Union. You may sign up for a one-time session to work with a Writing Associate on an as-needed basis or ongoing sessions. A student enrolled in ongoing sessions meets with the same Associate at the same time every week. This allows the Writing Associate to take a long-term view of your development as a reader, writer, speaker, and thinker.
