“Universitizing” continues with new support desk, unified library
Posted: November 1, 2011
The new, university-wide A.T. Still Memorial Library (ATSMLib) and its Educational Technology Development Center have established the Academic Computing Support Desk.
The support desk staff will provide answers to basic questions about the use of academic computing software and services and, if needed, refer individuals for more in-depth consultation. The support desk is located in the ATSMLib-Arizona. Access and use of the support desk are available to both the Arizona and Missouri programs’ faculty and staff.
ATSU’s new university-wide library launched on April 5, unifying the Arizona and Missouri campus libraries. The establishment of the A.T. Still University Memorial Library is part of the university’s move toward combining the two campuses into a single unified university structure.
Working together, the two campus library locations will take the lead in providing focused library and academic computing support of the schools on each campus.
“The new unified library structure will provide a consistent, coordinated set of resources and services across the ATSU community,” said Michael Kronenfeld, university librarian and director of the Arizona ATSMLib site. “The opportunity to better pool our resources and expertise will enable us to upgrade these services for everyone.”
Doug Blansit, formerly director of the ATSU Memorial Library in Missouri, will serve as director of the Missouri ATSMLib site.
