Libraries

The Pepperdine community is served by five libraries, including Payson Library and the Drescher Graduate Campus Library in Malibu; and satellite locations at the Calabasas Campus, West Los Angeles Graduate Campus, and the Irvine Graduate Campus. Library materials are listed in the online catalog, which is accessible within the libraries and from the University libraries' website. All circulating items in the Pepperdine libraries are available to all students and alumni and may be requested through the catalog for pickup at Malibu or at graduate campuses. 

For current Pepperdine students, a variety of electronic information, including journal articles, books, dissertations, and reference items, is available online. Reference librarians are available for research assistance during posted hours. An email and chat reference service, Ask-A-Librarian, is also available through the University libraries' website.
