The Clark Library continues to support teaching and learning during remote instruction. For full details, please visit our Fall 2020 Library Services guide.
Here are a few highlights:
- Borrow a laptop (for local users only). Perhaps your work laptop needs repair, or a student in your class indicates that their laptop stopped working. Visit the library during our open hours to borrow a laptop; advance reservations are not needed. Laptops checkout for 24 hours, with the possibility of longer loans if laptops are available. See the Equipment page of the Fall 2020 guide for more information.
- Borrow Digital Lab equipment (for local users only). Cameras, tripods, sound recorders, etc. are available. Call the Digital Lab (943.7796) on Tuesdays or Thursdays between 10am-1pm to discuss your equipment needs. Requested equipment will be held for you to pick up at the library’s Service Desk during open hours. For more information, see the Equipment page of the Fall 2020 guide.
- Request scans of book chapters. The library is offering a new service where you may request scans of chapters from books owned by UP; we will deliver them to you online as PDFs. You may also request chapters from books not owned by UP, which we will obtain from other libraries. Under fair use guidelines, up to 10% of an entire book may be scanned. To make your request, use the Book Chapter request form in our interlibrary loan system, UP ILLiad. For more information, see the Items We Can Deliver Online page of the Fall 2020 guide.
