Library Learning Center
We have a library on the third floor. This Library learning Center is led by our Librarian, Dr. Henderson Murphy. She helps support Emerald Campus in a variety of roles and is a great resource for students. The Writing Center can help with process, revision, and questions about research and citation. The center supports students but does not edit.
She is available on the following dates to help with writing tasks during the following times:
Monday and Wednesday 8:15-10:30
Thursdays 2:30-4:00
*As students begin to volunteer the hours may expand.
We also welcome Writing Center Volunteers. Any students interested in volunteering or interning should contact Dr. Peggy Henderson Murphy.
Additionally, we have a Makerspace in the library and a Woodshop space on the first floor.
On Mondays, the Makerspace is open to students 2:30 until 4:00.
On Wednesday, the Woodshop is open between 2:30 and 4:00 to help students who would like to work on woodworking projects.
