How can we work with you?
The Library announces the launch of Learning Connections, a one-stop web site that shows how librarians and faculty collaborate to develop classroom activities that encourage student learning and research.
The projects listed cover different topics and skills sets and are just a few examples of how faculty and staff can work together to improve output on student assignments.
You can view these examples on the Learning Connections site:

Please contact us to let us know how we can work with you and your class to create productive and successful learning connections for your students.
We would like to remind all students not to leave their valuables unattended in the Library. Each of the study tables have anchors in place for students to secure their laptops with locks that can be purchased from the College book store.
Please also remember to remove flash drives from the USB ports of the public computers and take other portable electronic devices and personal items with you when you leave your workstations.
