Cowles Library also houses formal and informal study, meeting, and collaboration spaces, as well as a classroom that seats 25. Additionally, the Library provides regularly updated online video tutorials that are useful in classes and for harnessing the capabilities of available tools, such as our information discovery products and tools for online learners and teachers.
