Libraries
Cooley has a library at each of its 5 campuses. The mission of these libraries is to provide students, faculty and staff with the resources, instruction, and services that are necessary for legal scholarship. Legal research can be conducted at the library through a variety of mediums including print, electronic, and multimedia sources. Reference librarians are present at each campus and can also be reached via the school website by chat, email, or telephone. The libraries have around 60 staff in total. CoolCat is the internet-based online catalogue for the library that can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection. The Cooley libraries collectively house roughly 670,000 volumes with an annual growth rate of more than 17,000 volumes. Cooley Law has a reciprocal agreement with both Western Michigan University and Oakland University allowing access to the materials in each institution's collections.

Famous quotes containing the word libraries:
“To me, nothing can be more important than giving children books, It’s better to be giving books to children than drug treatment to them when they’re 15 years old. Did it ever occur to anyone that if you put nice libraries in public schools you wouldn’t have to put them in prisons?”
—Fran Lebowitz (20th century)
