There are 3 scanner stations on the 5th floor of Cooper Library, near the Help Desk outside Java City. You must login with your Clemson user ID and password to use them.

Two of the scanners are standard size and one is large format (11” x 17”).

Detailed instructions are posted by each scanner. Read more about the scanners here.

Work is still being done on the east side of the 1st floor. More and more compact shelving is being installed every day. Call numbers from A through D are being shelved on the new shelving.

It’s a little confusing down there. If you need help getting books or journals, please go to the Circulation Desk. They can retrieve the materials for you or help you find what you are looking for.
