Calculators

​Interested in checking out a calculator for summer? 

If you are taking Elementary Statistics this summer, check your student e-mail for a message. 

There is also an online calculator emulator from Texas Instruments that can do everything a TI 84 can, and it’s free for 6 months!

Returning Books & Semester Loans

Have a semester loan or another book checked out?  Feel free to hang on to it unless you’re coming to campus for another reason. If you are, you can drop it off in the drop box. 

There will be no overdue fines, and you can return materials when the library reopens.
