The Saint Jerome Library supports the mission of Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary by facilitating its patrons’ interaction with recorded knowledge in all its forms. It responds to the curricular, informational, and research needs of its patrons by acquiring, housing, and providing access to books, periodicals, databases, audio-visual materials, digital media, and online resources, maintaining an appropriate environment for study and learning.

It plays a key role in the students’ education by providing various platforms on which the information and collective wisdom essential for their success is stored, equipping them with the skills necessary to navigate those platforms, and assisting them in their efforts to apply those skills in their academic work. The Library also makes its resources available to priests, deacons, parish ministers, religion teachers, and interested laypersons.
