CWRU receives instructional support from Ohio’s academic library consortium

OhioLINK, Ohio’s academic library consortium, received $2.5 million from the Ohio Governor’s Emergency Education Relief (GEER) funds through the Ohio Department of Higher Education. As a result, Case Western Reserve University and other OhioLINK member institutions will receive new streaming videos and e-books. The additional resources will provide CWRU faculty with instructional support for a wide range of curriculum, including physical and applied science courses that traditionally have not been taught online. GEER is part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act.

The new content is available in the Kelvin Smith Library’s A-Z Databases.

Supplemental resources for faculty to assist in curriculum integration are available on the OhioLINK website.
