Library Service at Additional Locations

A guide for communicating to patrons how services will continue and change at the additional locations.

Manitowoc Library Building Access

The Library on the Manitowoc campus has closed, but services and availability of library resources will continue as outlined below.

Research Help & Instruction

Help is available via chat, email, phone, and by virtual appointment. Click on the Research Help page of this guide to connect with a librarian.

Library instruction is primarily online and can take many forms, such as synchronous sessions, recorded presentations or tutorials, or custom research guides. To learn more about and/or schedule library instruction, visit our Library Instruction guide.

Physical Library Collections & Interlibrary Loan

88% of the library collection is available to you digitally from anywhere you have internet access. Requested articles and book chapters are also already delivered digitally via your UWGB email address.

The physical items of the library collection are available at the Green Bay and the Sheboygan campus libraries and these locations will serve as pickup locations for items requested from other libraries.

  • For students who do not have easy access to either the Green Bay or Sheboygan campus libraries, access to physical materials will be provided via US mail. Please see our guide on home delivery for more details.
  • For faculty and staff at Manitowoc needing an alternative option, please contact Jeff Ellair (ellairj@uwgb.edu) for assistance.

Options to return items include U.S. Mail or returning the item in-person to any other UW Library, such as Sheboygan. Please see our Returning Items page for further details.

For any questions about borrowing requests, contact interloan@uwgb.edu.

Course Reserves

We have discontinued physical reserves at the Manitowoc location and will migrate to full electronic course reserves. If an e‐book version of a reserve item is required, please contact Stephanie Alvey (alveys@uwgb.edu) for possible purchase. As per our collection development policy, we do not purchase textbooks (print or digital).

Laptops and Other Equipment

Laptops will be available for loan from the Green Bay and Sheboygan library locations. If you do not have easy access to either campus, please contact Public Services at 920‐465‐2540 or Jeff Ellair at Sheboygan (ellairj@uwgb.edu). We will do our best to make arrangements to get the equipment to another campus location.

Learning Center Services

Tutoring and academic success coaching will continue to be offered virtually. For details on how to set an appointment, please see The Learning Center’s website.
