About Fisher

At Fisher College, we believe that college is more than just an education—it's a life-changing experience. For more than a century, Fisher has been changing lives by providing opportunities to students focused on the three most important aspects of a college experience: education, dedication, and life.

Library

The Library serves as a gateway to information resources, creating an environment in which members of the Fisher College community can learn to access and use information in a constantly changing, technologically driven world. The Library embraces the College Mission by providing resources designed to support the curriculum, to promote intellectual curiosity and cultural appreciation, and to engage students, faculty and staff in the teaching/learning process.
