Anyone affiliated with PAC (students, faculty, and staff) can use the Ozuna Library resources. Most of our collection is academic in nature, because our mission is to support students with their coursework.  BUT we also have a growing collection of non-academic, leisure reading/listening available in print and electronic format that anyone affiliated with PAC can use.

You can use the Palomino Search box on our homepage to search for both print and electronic books and you can always ask a librarian for help, either in the library or via the Chat box to the right of the Palomino Search.

We have two main leisure eBook collections, one of which also includes e-Audiobooks:
