Introduction

We are pleased to welcome you and your students to the University Libraries. Your students are potential University of Wyoming students so we want to make their visit here successful. This guide is designed to make your student's experience positive and productive.

Please complete our Visit Request Form as soon as possible to request instruction and tours for your students. It is also important that you have students complete the Parental Permission form and send the documents to Coe Library Help Desk before your visit.

We strongly encourage you to work with your school or public librarian to ensure that your students take full advantage of the numerous WYLD databases available through Wyoming public and school libraries.
