Description:
The Corporate Services Center is a consortium of
academic and corporate libraries centered at The University of Akron for
the purposes of fostering collection strengths and library services in support
of the intellectual and economic growth of the Akron area and its science
and technology superiority.
The University Libraries at the University of Akron
are particularly strong in the areas of polymer, rubber, and related disciplines,
as well as in engineering disciplines. In fact, the collection lead among
both private and public institutions in northern Ohio. The addition of the
resources available through the collections of corporate libraries and donations
only strengthen the claim, making the consortium and its holdings notably
extensive. For a more general description of the collection, see the Collection
Overview page.
