Enhanced Library Technology & Resources Initiative

The J. Paul Leonard Library, including its many group study spaces and a popular cafe, is among the University’s highest-trafficked facilities for student life, learning, research, and technology-driven educational approaches. Academic Technologies serves the entire campus in myriad ways, from arranging web conferencing and video production to developing platforms for hybrid and online courses.

The Enhanced Library Technology & Resources Initiative will ensure that the library thrives at the forefront of technological developments and applications. Academic Technologies will support new methods of acquisition and delivery (e.g., patron-driven/demand-driven acquisition of electronic books and streaming media) while the Digital Media Studio makerspace will meet increased demand for three-dimensional production by students and faculty.
