On behalf of the Frederick Douglass Library Staff, I welcome you to our website. Along with the wealth of resources located in our facility, the technology makes it possible to transmit this greeting and a multiplicity of resources in electronic format. As the only research and doctoral granting institution of the University of Maryland System on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, we are committed to providing resources to support the university's programs. Additionally, our patrons have access to all of the University System of Maryland library collections.

As you visit our virtual library, we also encourage you to physically visit our facility. The one-on-one interaction with our patrons is very much an integral component of our services. We have very competent staff eager to assist you with your information needs.

We work diligently to provide quality service and your comments and or suggestions can greatly assist in our efforts. Please share them with me electronically or submit them to our COMMENTS page located on our website. We are here to serve you.
