Library

Do you need to check out a laptop from the library? The library has a limited number of circulating laptops available, first come first serve. Stop by the library or contact us for more information on our current inventory.

If the Library does not have any devices available, students may be able to access an Emergency Grant to purchase their own laptop or internet service. The Emergency Grant application can be completed at LWTech.edu/EmergencyGrant (scroll down to the Emergency Grant section).

If you would like to schedule an appointment to meet with a librarian during the library's open hours, please email library@lwtech.edu. Be sure to include some information on the nature of your request, which academic course it concerns (if any), and any given timelines or deadlines involved.

Know which librarian you would like to work with? Direct emails can be sent to Sue Wozniak, Katherine Kelley, and Stirling Holland-Stone.

Appointments can be in person or online via Microsoft Teams.

Other contact information for the Library can be found on the right sidebar of this page, under Contacts.
