Student Success Begins with Information
The Library Media Center, located on the second and third floors of the Bill H. Hill Library Building in the center of campus, is truly a hub for information, technology, research and pleasure reading for Eastern students and staff. The library's collection has over 38,000 books in open stacks, and it subscribes to over 200 magazines and newspapers available to students in a comfortable reading area. The collection features an impressive number of materials concerning Native American culture and history.
When doing research, students have access to several online indexes linked below. Students who do not have a computer or reliable access to the internet can make an appointment to use the Library’s computer lab. Since the Library's card catalog is fully automated, research is easy.
The media center boasts of an interesting collection of art, most from former Eastern students. Some of the artists include Merlin Littlethunder, Connie Seabourn, Susan Thomas Reed, Teresa Terrell, Pam Kirkes and Anita Caldwell Jackson.
The professional staff, which includes two media specialists with masters in Library Science, are eager to help students at any time.

EOSC Newspaper Archives
During its early years as a mining school, EOSC printed the "Oklahoma Miner" with student and school news. The third issue was dated December 25, 1916, and it was published every two weeks. In 1932, a new student newspaper was established and titled the "Mountaineer," which offered stories on campus activities, faculty news, sports, and student government, along with advertising from Wilburton, McAlester, Hartshorne, and Idabel. The "Mountaineer" was published monthly or bi-monthly during the regular school year. In 1960, it won the Best All-Around Oklahoma Junior College Newspaper Award from the Oklahoma Collegiate Press Association. In January 1961, the school’s name was added to the publication’s title: the "Eastern A&M Mountaineer." With the final change in the institution’s name in 1967, the paper also received its final title change to the "Eastern Statesman." The print edition continued into the 2018-2019 school year as a member of the Oklahoma Collegiate Press Association, the Community College Journalism Association, the Student Press Law Center, and the Oklahoma Interscholastic Press Association. By 2021-2022, the publication shifted to online only where it provides local stories, campus news, sports, and entertainment.
