will remain remote operation. Decisions also being made about how to proceed with Spring quarter, both for Instruction and for the rest of the campus. In the meantime, Librarians are ramping up remote access services, Circ and other staff are re-orienting
to working remotely, and the TLC, Student Media Center, and eLearning are all working double time to provide services and support to faculty, students and staff. Library is working in tandem with other stakeholders to provide access to Chromebooks to students
who need them.</span></p>
