Your learning. Your power. Your connections.

 

Now more than ever, staying charged means staying connected. Throughout the library there are so many ways to charge your devices to stay on track and stay in touch. Plug in to our outlets, charging stations, or USB ports built right into the furniture. 

Where can you check out a laptop, or other tech tools?

Computers (both Apple & PCs) are available to you throughout the library. Need to print off a syllabus or an assignment? You can print in color or black & white, from your laptop or using one of the library's computers. Sharing lecture notes to get ready for a big exam? Scan on a large-format scanner and email them to yourself, or save them to a flash drive.
