CECH Library Book Returns

Did you know? The CECH Library services two book returns outside of the CECH Library to make book returns easier than ever!  

The first is located just outside the CECH Library entrance on level 3 of the Teachers-Dyer Complex. This book return is serviced immediately upon opening and multiple times a day while the library is open.

The second book return is in the lobby of Edwards 1, next to the WEPA printer. This book return is serviced by CECH Library student employees and staff 2 times a week. Items returned to this book return are backdated upon check in to ensure overdue fines do not accrue between service.  

Library books may be returned to any UC Libraries location during their open hours as well. Special collections such as mixed materials, equipment, and reserve items belonging to the CECH Library should be returned to the CECH Library Info Desk. If you are unsure about the return policy for your item, please call us at 513-556-1430.

New Library Instruction Menu from CECH Library

CECH librarians love engaging with students and teaching library instruction sessions to classes across the college. To better promote what is possible with library instruction, instruction librarians in CECH Library developed a new instruction menu.  

The menu has four categories of offerings with example lessons in each. These categories and examples are not exhaustive – course instructors are encouraged to reach out to discuss the specific needs of their students to customize the lesson!  

The menu was developed based on common instruction requests, concepts students need assistance with during research consultations, and the particular programs and disciplines we serve. 

Instructors who are interested in having a library instruction session for a class should reach out to
Madeleine Gaiser (gaiserml@uc.edu) or Katie Foran-Mulcahy (katie.foran@uc.edu) for scheduling and more details.
