The mission of the Mark O. Hatfield Library is to inspire learning and intellectual curiosity and preserve history and memory. The library fosters a rich environment for teaching and scholarship in the Willamette community.

We endeavor to:

Offer individual attention to library users to promote academic success and personal growth;

Provide access to the world of ideas represented in the words, images, and sounds that are the collected record of human knowledge;

Cultivate an awareness and appreciation of reading, research, and the exploration of multiple perspectives; and

Lead our users through the complex world of information and technology.
