The goal of Wendell G. Hardway Library of Bluefield State College is to lead the campus in providing access to information and education in information seeking skills.  The Library offers information literacy instruction and personal assistance to students and researchers in the use of its collections. These are developed in collaboration with faculty to support the College curriculum. The Library's resources and services promote the independent pursuit of knowledge, contribute to the mission of Bluefield State College, and are available for use by students, alumni and employees of the College, residents of the community, and citizens of the state of West Virginia. In recognition of Bluefield State's rich heritage as a Historically Black College, the Library also collects, preserves, and makes available primary source materials that document the history of the College. 

At Bluefield State College, the Wendell G. Hardway library is a member of the Mountain Library Network consortium for West Virginia. This offers our patrons the opportunity to have access to materials both here on site as well as at the other member libraries.  

In cases of inclement weather on weekends please call the library first @ 304-327-4054 to make sure the library will be open, Thank you.
