The
Elihu Burritt Library and the Department of History are partnering to preserve
and share the CCSU community’s experience of the COVID-19 pandemic. Members of
the community are invited to share pictures, documents, videos, or any other
artifacts that represent their experience of this past year.
For an example of the valuable historical work that can be done with this sort of archive, please visit “Pandemic in Perspective”, an exhibit created by students in Professor Leah Glaser’s course, History 302: Introduction to Public History.
Welcome back to CCSU’s Spring 2021 semester! To review the library’s hours and rules of operation in the coming semester, visit our Library Services Guide. With the first day of classes coming up on January 26, we want to remind you that you can get research help from our librarians online through live chat or more in-depth support by booking an appointment with them.
The OER Library Team is excited to share our first edition of the OER Faculty Newsletter – Open@CCSU. We hope you find it informative and helpful as we head into a new semester.
This is a reminder to all visitors to the library building – you must wear a mask at all times. Repeat offenders will be subject to CCSU’s compliance procedures (for details, please see: https://www.ccsu.edu/blueprintForFall2020/compliance.html)
In order to ensure the health and safety of CCSU students, faculty, staff, and the public, the Elihu Burritt Library will be operating under modified procedures for Fall 2020

The library’s staff members thank you for your patience and understanding!
Library instruction is key to building students’ information
literacy. Information literacy allows scholars to assess their information
needs, find information, evaluate it, and use it appropriately.
The online instruction request form may be used to schedule an online information literacy session or general overview of library resources to support your course in a LMS such as Blackboard. We can host or join your class via Webex or another platform for a live session. In addition, this form may be used to request the creation of various online research aids such as a course guide, customized lesson plan, tutorial, and other services to support your online teaching.
Looking forward to receiving
your request! Questions may be directed to Susan Slaga-Metivier,
Head Reference / Instruction.
