What students are saying about the DeVry Library...
I love the DeVry Library, taking the work out of verifying websites and information. With as much information as is available on the internet, it makes it easier to complete research for assignment when I have access to the DeVry Library resource.
I can't think of a way to make it any better. I used the "Ask a librarian" feature and OMG!!!! The level of knowledge she had....Saved me hours. So helpful! You all at DeVry get it! Thank you!!!!
SO thankful for the DeVry Library!! I plan to utilize these resources much more in the future!
This is something that would be beneficial to ALL students whether they are just starting out, in the middle of obtaining their degree(s), or at the end of their journey (like me). This would have helped me with so many classes over the last almost 4 years.
I don't think there's much more they could do to help me to succeed in my courses. They are readily available to help and I appreciate that, plus the research available is a large selection.
Services and sources at DeVry University are excellent and super useful.
