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.
