#FIDMfam Your library is available Monday-Friday! Check the portals for current library hours and see us in person, or give us an email or phone call anytime
Current students and community researchers can still make appointments to visit during the quarter break! Check out some summer reading ⛱️
We know our #FIDMfam doesn't need luck, so have a low-stress last week of term! You did it!
(we helped 😉)

The library's materials workroom in LA is available to visitors, not just books! Need swatches or advice on materials sourcing? Make an appointment to visit the library and our materials experts 💕🧣

Mental health month may be coming to a close, but FIDM counselors are available to you anytime. The library also has books on getting organized, taking care of yourself, or just relaxing!
Access to Peclers+, one of our trend forecast subscriptions, has changed! We are in the process of updating our access links, but for now please see the Library News on the myFIDM portal for instructions.
Your answer isn't always in our databases, but when it's not our librarians can also help you find reliable information in other sources like our physical collections or even the open web.
FIDM students have access to Panjiva, global database of trade to find manufacturers and suppliers from around the world.
Check it out in research and trend databases!
We've had a week of limited in-person library services now! So good to see our #FIDMfam again.
Our online resources are still available to everyone staying at home. We're here to help wherever you're at!

Next Monday we're looking forward to welcoming students back into the library!
We can only accommodate a *very* small number due to the continued need for social distancing, so send us an email to book a spot, arrange to check out books, or use one of our computers.
Bloomsbury Fashion Central is a digital hub for fashion research!
Open it up through our database page and access major reference works, exclusive articles, eBooks, case studies, video content, backstage & runway photos of major shows, and tens of thousands of museum images.

We hope our whole #FIDMfam is enjoying spring break!
We are closed tomorrow (the 2nd) but today our librarians are on high alert for misinformation 🧐
We're getting the libraries ready to restore access to physical collections next month! Initial opening will be limited to appointment only, stay tuned!
The leading online platform for the professional beauty insider, COSMETIC BUSINESS is available to all current students & faculty thru the FIDM library portals!
