Academic Coaching
One of the most useful resources that you can access through the library is our online academic coaching platform. Through the link in your Canvas courses, you will be able to connect with our academic coaches who will be happy to guide you as you work through class assignments or research a paper on a wide range of subjects. Drop in assistance is available during regular library hours.
