The new Stephen S. Clark Library for Maps, Government Information and Data Services is open! The Clark Library creates a rich and unique scholars’ resource on campus, capitalizing on the rich collections, strengths and interdisciplinary nature of the units, and allowing us to take advantage of increased spaces and new technologies that make collaboration possible in unprecedented new ways.
We are located on the second floor of the Hatcher Graduate Library's South building.
The new library includes:
• A presentation space that will accommodate instruction
• Display space for physical and digital collections
• Large screen digital displays, along with dual-screen computers and accessibility for laptops, in collaborative group spaces and individual workstations throughout the library
• High-resolution scanning capabilities to allow for the creation of a digital copy of a map for a user to work with either online or via a print-on-demand real-size copy
• An ongoing program of preemptive digitization of maps from the collection for preservation
• Flexible and movable furniture to allow for studying, research and collaboration, with the capability of small group or auditorium-style seating for special events
• Storage capacity onsite for researchers to hold maps on which they are working in a secure place for the length of their project
