Check out our updated website!

Welcome back to the 2019-2020 school year at Juniata College!

Over the summer, your librarians have been hard at work with orientations, library updates, Fall programming, and exciting new services for new and returning students.

One of our projects included updating the library's home page, simplifying and streamlining how our patrons and researchers find materials.

Some updated changes include:

• LIBRARY CHAT! You can now chat with a librarian right from your desktop, laptop, or mobile device. If you have any questions about resources, upcoming events, or concerns in the library (loud neighbors?): drop into the chat!
• ANNOUNCEMENTS: There is now a carousel of rotating announcements on the homepage which will highlight new resources, upcoming events, and important announcements. Staying on top of library news is easier than ever!
• RESERVE ROOMS ONLINE: Need to reserve a study room in the library? Now it's as easy as clicking on the "Reserve a Room" button at the bottom of the page
• STUDENT RESOURCES: We have centralized all student resources into one guide! Visiting the library webpage for the first time or not sure where to start your research? Visit this resource for tips and tricks!
• FACULTY RESOURCES: Want to know what services the library has for instructors? Check out this centralized guide to library instruction, personal research services, embedded information literacy programing, and more!

The website will continue to undergo updates throughout the year as we receive feedback on its functionality. Let us know what you think in the comments below, or email Christine Elliott at elliotc@juniata.edu.
