The library wants to do more to help you. Take a moment to complete a survey about the library's response to COVID-19.
We want to continually enhance its spaces and services. The survey will assess your overall use, needs, and future needs regarding the library. Your responses will provide information that will allow us to better meet your needs.
The survey consists of 10 questions and should take 5-10 minutes to complete. Your responses are confidential and anonymous.
Family Weekend is approaching, and we've created a digital escape room for you and your family and friends. Solve the puzzles left behind by Professor Shortz and see if you can "escape" the library.

"The Final Escape" digital escape room will go live on Thursday, Oct. 22.

As many of us are working at least partly from home, it can be difficult to get the resources that are needed for research or projects. The library has an assortment of online databases and journals that anyone with a ULID can access, no matter where they are.
The database, Academic Video Online (AVON), is a digital collection of films and documentaries covering a wide range of topics across all fields. AVON is a primary streaming service and we encourage any users in need of video resources to check out the database.
