New Titles
A monthly list of materials added to the Library is sorted by collection location and call number to allow you to browse materials recently added to the Library collections. The list includes all types of materials including books, government publications, ejournals, and media materials. New materials as well as older materials added to the collection are included on the new titles list. This list is not inclusive and tends to not include many of the electronic journals.

Library Assessment Report
The 2007 Indiana University Kokomo Library Assessment Report has been submitted to the campus Assessment Committee for review. The librarians generally interpret the results of the assessment as positive reflections of the library’s service, information control and as a place to study and do research. The assessment did point to a couple of areas in which the library can be better and we are already working towards making those improvements.
Some pieces of the assessment will be used in developing the upcoming General Education Curriculum’s Information Literacy goal and outcomes.
