Frequently Asked Questions - Library Services - Academic Year 20-21
Protecting the health of the CCSU community during the coronavirus is the overarching principle guiding the opening of the Elihu Burritt Library in the 20-21 academic year. Service levels have changed. Here's what you need to know:
What should I know if I visit the library building?
Masks and social distancing are required.
No food or drink is allowed. Library stacks are closed to users. Additional study areas for CCSU students, faculty and staff only are open on Stack 3, by the Media Center window, Stack 5 study rooms and Stack 7. The book stacks areas on all Stack levels continue to be closed for browsing.
How do I get a book from the library?
Request your material online, then pick up at the Circulation Desk, near the front door.
See Getting Books
Will computers be available for use?
There will be no publicly accessible computers at the library in the 20-21 academic year. Most equipment shared in-house has been removed from public areas. If you are in need of technological equipment to support your learning experience please contact CCSU via COVIDUpdate@ccsu.edu.
No, unfortunately, for sanitary reasons, there are no printers available within the Library. Printing is available in the Student Center; instructions found here.
How about if I need help with Research or have other questions?
The reference desk on the library's 2nd floor will not be staffed in-person this semester however our librarians are available to help you online through a chat-based "help desk" or ask-a-librarian email. You can also book a librarian for synchronous online consultations and research help.
