CORONAVIRUS UPDATE: The Libraries have resumed some on-campus services and introduced new protocols for our locations.
All visitors to Hunt and Sorrells Libraries must reserve a seat to study. Read more in the University Libraries' COVID-19 FAQ.
Starting November 30, 2020, Hunt Library will be open with reduced hours through Wednesday, December 23. After this date, the library will close, reopening again on Tuesday, January 19, 2021.
Sorrells and Mellon Libraries will close November 25 and remain closed until January 19.
December 3rd is International Day of People with Disabilities, which aims to promote the rights and well-being of persons with disabilities, and our current book display focuses on accessibility awareness.
University Libraries is partnering with DNAnexus and the OpenCravatGroup at Johns Hopkins University to host a virtual hackathon titled "Bringing Genomic Data to the Clinic" on January 6-8, 2021. A variety of exciting projects will be revealed to hackathon participants prior to the hackathon, and will build off of previous National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) hackathons and community projects.
In response to COVID-19 and the unique needs of a hybrid semester, the Libraries have pursued a number of options to provide remote access to library print materials. As a result of these efforts, users can now request scans of chapters or specific pages of print materials contained within the Libraries’ catalog to be sent to them via email.
To request scans of library materials:
Data provide the hard facts to explain anything, from a cat’s behavior on catnip to election dynamics to how climate change will affect a given region. While data provides a way to explore the natural environment, it can be manipulated and misused. Emma Slayton and Hannah Gunderman created a course at Carnegie Mellon University to help students distinguish between the truth and lies that lurk in the numbers.
Controlled digital lending (CDL) enables our library to scan and lend a digitized version of a book in lieu of a physical copy, in a controlled manner that precludes copying or redistribution.
