Welcome to the

With three levels of research and learning
[00:00:23.789]

In addition to providing core library
[00:01:51.797]
services, such as technology access and
[00:01:54.677]

[00:01:57.370]

[00:01:59.958]
teaching program with the opening of the
[00:02:02.437]
Dinsdale Family Learning Commons.
[00:02:04.387]
This program supports and provides
[00:02:06.575]
solutions for the unique information, data
[00:02:09.655]
and scholarly communication needs of the
[00:02:12.254]
East & Innovation Campus communities.
[00:02:16.840]
Based out of Dinsdale, our information
[00:02:19.170]
experts will be creating strategic
[00:02:21.343]
partnerships, engaging with researchers &
[00:02:23.777]
learners, and developing creative
[00:02:26.556]
opportunities to help students, staff,
[00:02:28.775]
and faculty use information and data to
[00:02:32.293]
respond to challenges in Nebraska and the
[00:02:34.875]
world and foster resilience in our
[00:02:37.440]
communities.
[00:02:39.102]
We look forward to welcoming you into
[00:02:41.179]
the Dinsdale Family Learning Commons.
[00:02:43.431]
Future plans for the Commons include the
[00:02:45.599]
addition of a cafe and return of the book
[00:02:48.069]
collection to the lower level after
[00:02:50.092]
Spring 2021.
[00:02:51.932]
