Have you seen the display of student projects in the library? It currently includes projects from recent senior ME and ET students. Come check out the Stirling Engine, the Troublemaker, and the Library Decibel Meter. These projects were created by Cal Maritime students and donated to the library to inspire your creativity and ingenuity.
We’d love to see your project here someday!
The Cal Maritime Library will be closed Friday, July 4, 2024, for Independence Day, and we will not be working remotely.
We will reopen Monday, July 7. Check our full hours here.

You will have many important decisions to make leading up to the election. We want to ensure your voice is heard and you make informed decisions. CSUM Library created our own Election 2024 guide.

The Cal Maritime Library will have a physical display of books and movies, and voting FAQs posted around the library. We also encourage you to check out our Democracy in America reading list.

Continue to take action to celebrate and ensure true freedom for all through awareness of racial disparities, mobilization, and bold actions necessary to further the fight for social justice and equal opportunity.
