Faculty Media Services

The Audiovisual Center (497-3253) located in the lower level of the Cecil W. Robbins Library, provides media resources and services to faculty, administration, staff and students. The AV Center houses the library’s collection of videocassettes, videodiscs, and a variety of instructional equipment. Services include circulation of materials, delivery of equipment, assistance with equipment, interlibrary loan of videos from the State Library, video and cassette tape duplication, scanning services, and use of the AV Auditorium.

Faculty may search for videocassettes individually on the library catalog at http://192.168.1.4/ or click to view the entire video/videodisc list . Videos may borrowed for one semester by faculty and are due back at the semester’s end.

Faculty may reserve equipment in advance by calling the AV Department; equipment will be delivered to the specified location if equipment reservations are made three days ahead of time. When equipment is available, it may be picked up directly from the AV Department without being reserved; however, equipment cannot be delivered unless reserved in advance. Faculty may check out general instructional equipment for an extended period of time if there are no other requests for it. All equipment must be returned to the library at the end of each academic year.

The State Library maintains a diverse collection of films, videocassettes, and slides which are available for loan on a planned schedule to faculty at institutions of higher education. Videos must be reserved in advance by calling the Audiovisual Center at 497-3253 with information on titles and dates needed. Faculty may search the State Library Catalog at State Library catalog. It usually takes one week from when order was placed to receive materials. Videos may be borrowed for a maximum of ten days and can be renewed if necessary.
