NMSU Libraries provide access to many
non-fiction books dealing with specialized and academic topics. They

periodicals are limited primarily to popular newspapers and magazines.)
Many of the articles in NMSU's journals can be downloaded through
full-text links in electronic databases.
NMSU is also a federal depository library for government documents and
