The Beneficial-Hodson Library is an essential partner in student success and campus enrichment.

Mission

As the center of research on campus, the Beneficial-Hodson Library works to enable the Hood College community to learn, discover, create, and engage with the world of ideas both within and beyond the curriculum. 

We strive to create and maintain accessible, inclusive, and culturally affirming spaces, services, collections, and educational opportunities that enable everyone in our community to meet the personal, professional, and social challenges of our world.
