A Resource for Students & Faculty

Educational Technology Services (ETS) is a unit within the Jane Bancroft Cook Library that works collaboratively with faculty, other campus units and Information Technology. It is staffed by a director along with an audiovisual support specialist. ETS plays a leading role in working with faculty and students in identifying, evaluating, selecting and implementing learning technologies.

ETS is the foundational service within the Academic Resource Center (ARC), a state of the art facility that provides users with access to a variety of cutting-edge technologies in an innovative and flexible environment. The ARC provides an open-use computer lab, language acquisition computer stations, digital media computer stations, collaboration spaces for faculty/students, large academic poster printing, document/image scanners, video stations and study areas.
