Library Requests 

Cuesta librarians are here for you and your students, in person and online. We support Cuesta's mission by providing resources such as book or periodical requests, class library orientations and tours, embedded librarians, research guides, and other instructional support. 
Materials can be placed on reserve by faculty for use at the libraries in San Luis Obispo and Paso Robles.
