Logan University is happy to accept donations to the Library. All materials will be evaluated for inclusion in either the circulating or archival collections. Any material not accepted will be offered to students, faculty and staff. Papers, photographs and documents relating to Logan history or graduates will be evaluated for inclusion in the Logan Archives. All items become the property of Logan University and no items will be returned to the donor. The Library will acknowledge receipt of donated items but is unable to set fair market or appraisal values.

Logan’s library is a member of the Missouri Bibliographic Information User System (MOBIUS), which is a network comprised of over 70 college, university and public libraries in the state of Missouri, and provides Internet access to the online catalogs of each of the libraries. Through MOBIUS, Logan faculty, staff and students can borrow books from any of the participating libraries. Logan patrons have the capability of checking their library account, placing holds and renewing materials via the Logan online catalog.

Additionally, an efficient interlibrary loan program offers members of the Logan community access to books and articles that are not available through Logan or MOBIUS.
