Online resources

The SCAD Libraries’ online information and resources portal (library.scad.edu) is shared by all locations, provides access to the library catalog, and serves a gateway to the full range of resources, collections, and services the library offers the SCAD community.

In addition to the ability to search the entire library catalog and access eBooks and other digital publications, the library portal includes listings and links for online workshops that explore topics such as research strategies, intellectual property, and a range of techniques and tools for locating credible sources. SCAD offers workshops in person and online. Additionally, research guides for each discipline are accessible on the SCAD Libraries portal and posted through Blackboard, where they are populated according to individual student schedules and augmented with recommended resources. SCAD Libraries also offers students and faculty additional research assistance through online chats or by email or phone. Chat service is available during Jen Library’s reference desk hours, and in-depth library assistance is available online and in person.
