Clermont College Library: Fall 2020
Clermont College Library will reopen on August 24 for the Fall 2020 semester. To help address questions, the library has developed a Fall 2020 FAQs page, which we hope will help Clermont students, faculty, and staff understand library operations in the upcoming semester. We anticipate the page will need to be updated throughout as we navigate these unfamiliar times, so feel free to refer to the page often.
Here are a few highlights for things you can expect from your Clermont College Library:

Temporary Clermont Library Helpers (with fur)
With all of the library faculty and staff working remotely, we’ve added a few temporary library helpers to our staff. These staff members are usually at our homes, but since work is at home, Clermont College Library wanted you to meet them before they introduce themselves on a video call:
