TUTORING

RESEARCH AND LIBRARY RESOURCES

Students at Mitchell Tech need current information in all academic and technical disciplines. In today’s rapidly changing information-based society, Mitchell Tech has found that a traditional “library” is not the best use of our resources. Instead, we have focused on providing electronic access to information. All students have Internet access in The Center. South Dakota’s Internet-based library resources provide access to academic research databases.

For additional library resources, there is a formal agreement between Mitchell Tech, the Mitchell Public Library, and the Dakota Wesleyan University library for student access to these facilities. A student must show a student ID card and proof of residency to be eligible for public library and DWU library privileges.

Reservation of the Right to Modify Materials listed in this document is believed to be accurate at the time of publication. The College reserves the right to make changes that seem necessary or desirable, including course and program cancellations, requirements, financial fees, and to add, alter, or delete courses and programs. While reasonable efforts will be made to publicize changes, a student is encouraged to seek current information from appropriate offices. Content is subject to change without notice and does not constitute an offer to contract with any person. It is ultimately the student’s responsibility to be aware of current regulations, curriculum, policies, and the status of specific programs.
