Finding materials
The learning commons has many public computer workstations that
offer access to the library’s online catalog, periodical indexes, reference databases, and
the internet. Please ask for help at the reference desk if you need assistance with any of
these.
Layout
The upper floor of the learning commons has public computers, study rooms, a
multi-media classroom, a recording studio, and a café. It also houses the Division of
Educational Technology and the Technology Help Desk. The lower floor has the majority
of our print collection, public computers, study rooms, a multi-media classroom and is
intended for quiet study.
Other Services
Interlibrary Loan
If we do not have the material you need, you may be able to get it
from another library through our Interlibrary Loan service. You may request up to four
interlibrary loan items per month. Ask at the reference desk for details.
Study rooms
The learning commons has several study rooms available. They can be
reserved at the circulation desk.
Recording Studio

is user-friendly and requires no prior
video production training or experience. The simple design of the studio allows students,
faculty and staff to create high-quality and polished video projects with just a USB flash
drive and the simple push of a button. Completed recordings are automatically saved to
your flash drive in the widely compatible MP4 format, and can be easily uploaded to your
YouTube channel or other video-sharing account.
Copying
Copies cost 10 cents per page. Color copying and printing are available for 15
cents a page. Money is automatically deducted from your Papercut account.
Scanner
The library has a scanner for student use which will scan printed materials to a
flash drive, as an alternative to photocopying. There is no charge for this.
