On September 15, 2010, Colorado State University-Pueblo went live as the 26th library in the Prospector system. This means that their library holdings are available for lending and that CSU-Pueblo faculty/staff/students may now borrow from other libraries in Prospector.

CSU-Pueblo has over 5,000 students and is nestled in a historically and culturally rich community of more than 100,000 people. The campus started in 1933 when it began as a three-room junior college with 63 students and two instructors; it officially became a four-year university in 1965. Colorado State University-Pueblo became the new name in 2003.

CSU-Pueblo’s library is currently under renovation but their rich collections are still available through Prospector. Their collection includes:

• 188,000+ books
• 247,000+ government documents
• 13,000+ CDs, DVDs, and videocassettes
• Access to over 20,000 print and online journals
• Access to over 100 online databases
• University Archives and Special Collections

With the addition of CSU-Pueblo, Prospector has now passed 9.75 million unique titles with over 27 million copies. The system includes printed books, ebooks, journals, movies, music and many other items.
