Kenneth J. Shouldice Library

The Library Now Lends iPads, Kindles, and more!

The library has a few devices to loan (1 Nook HD, 1 Kindle Fire HD, 2 Nexus 7's and 2 iPad 3rd Generations). The loan period for each tool is two weeks. Each device has a variety of apps that we hope will let you explore what that tool can do. For more information, to check one out, or to get on the waiting list, call Beth Hronek (x2651) or send an e-mail to bhronek@lssu.edu
