Faculty Services

Faculty Lounge

The faculty lounge is located the third floor behind the library. It has several faculty workstations equipped with computers (hooked to a central printer), and telephones for calls related to University Center teaching.  The lounge is also comfortably furnished with armchairs for relaxing, table and chairs, and a kitchenette including sink, refrigerator, and microwave.  Please make yourself at home.

“Mobies”

A few lockable mobile units providing storage for books and materials are available for faculty members for a semester.  “Mobies” can be readily wheeled to your classroom and are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Contact Judy Lorenz (847/665-4006)  to reserve one.

Copying and Printing

Some member institutions authorize faculty to bill them for class materials copied or printed at the University Center.  If your institution has provided that option, the receptionist in the first floor student services area will have a Quick Key for your department’s use.  Ask the receptionist for the appropriate Quick Key and be sure to fill in the logbook tracking your use of it.

Library

To schedule a library instruction session for your class(es), please download and complete the faculty instruction request form. E-mail the completed form to Distance Learning Librarian Trish Compton.  Alternatively, you may drop the form off at the library service desk. Note: Please sign up at least two weeks prior to the requested date for your session. Please contact Trish Compton (847) 665-4011 or in the library if you have any other questions about library services available to you and your students.
