Muses and mentors await you at the newly renovated Maine Media Workshops + College (MMW+C) library located in the Ernst Haas Building. Come browse the wealth of books and peruse the comprehensive collection, which has been revamped as part of Kathryn Diman’s University of Maine Augusta library internship project. This project was implemented in conjunction with MMW+C to ensure that your access to the more than 3,000 materials relating to Photography, Film, Fine Arts, Biography, Cinematography and Multimedia will be easy and completely manageable.

No more squeezing between tall dark shelves overflowing with oversized books to find the resources you need – we’ve opened up the shelving to give you the space and light you deserve as a patron of the library. While at the library, make an appointment to visit the new archives room located in classroom 2E in the Shepherd Building. Back issues of Aperture, National Geographic. Zoom, Digital Imaging, Blindspot and many more professional journals and magazines are now available for check out along with classic videos and reference books. With over 1,000 archives available and easily accessed, your journey back in time will enrich your knowledge base and amaze you.

A collection of over 100 rare books may be accessed in the Ernst Haas Building. Additionally, a special collection of film scripts are in the process of being catalogued and will soon be available for your viewing. You never know where your next inspiration will come from!
