Summer Service Adjustments at Lake Shore Campus
May 2023
Due to the Information Commons renovations, our LSC location will move to Cudahy room 153, located just north of the Gilbert/Connections Cafe in the hallway with pinboards. We will be actively moving our loan resources and paper supplies for lab support during the Summer Interim I period (between Monday, May 8th through Friday, May 19th). We will be unable to offer poster printing or media production studio filming at LSC as a result, however these services will remain available at our Water Tower Campus location. We anticipate returning to our IC locations in the Summer Interim II just before the fall semester begins. To learn more, visit the Information Commons and Cudahy Libraries Facilities Projects page.
End of Spring 2023 Semester
April 2023
As the spring semester concludes, all our services see higher usage and demand. We recommend that everyone plan accordingly to make advance reservations for equipment loan needs using our Equipment Reservation System as many items are in demand with back-to-back reservations. Printing posters, lab printing and lab usage also sees high usage and demand during this time as well.
Note that our Equipment Reservation System will not permit reservations for the Summer Sessions until after spring semester concludes. Our Checkout Center hours will be updated on Monday, May 8th to enable reservations and loan usage for the summer. Access is only available to students when active in coursework based on LOCUS class start and end dates. If you have Summer Session classes your access will resume the first day of your summer classes. For those returning to classes in the fall, your access will resume the first day of the fall semester. For any faculty/staff loan requests that go beyond the end of the Spring Semester, please email your loan request to digitalmediaservices@luc.edu so we may review.
We will continue to operate with regular semester hours up through Saturday, May 6th. Thereafter we will operate with more reduced, intersession hours as the summer begins. Look to our Location Hours to plan your equipment returns accordingly. We wish you all the best of luck with finals ahead!
Poster Printing & Consultations, New Button Making Service!
April 2023
As we approach the final month of the spring semester, please look to our reminders, expanded and new services:
- Poster Printing galore! Let DMS be your resource for your poster printing needs for conferences, presentations or if you're part of the URES/LUROP poster symposium. For those approved for printing for URES/LUROP, be aware the deadline to submit posters is Saturday, April 15th by midnight for gauranteed printing for pickup before the event. We encourage pickup during the week to best review and prepare your posters for the Saturday, April 22nd event. To find templates, instructions and our submission form, learn more about Poster Printing here.
- NEW: Poster Design Consultations. In support of all the spring poster printing, we have introduced Poster Consultations. The opportunity to meet virtually, or provide your poster file for one of our Lab Supervisors to help review and provide you feedback. This is a great opportunity to verify your poster is optimal for large format printing, or otherwise have a second set of eyes help provide any feedback. To schedule a consultation, complete our Poster Design Consultations form.
- NEW: Button Making Service. We have periodically received requests for other printing opportunities. Listening to feedback, we have expanded our services to enable small quantities of buttons to be made from our team based on your design submissions. This can be a great opportunity for student activities, resource fairs, or just celebrating with a few friends and classmates events and successes and fun with buttons. Learn more about Button Making Service here.
We wish you the best of luck ahead with your end of semester projects, presentations, tests and finals!
