Partner Collections

The 小蓝视频 Library cooperates with unaffiliated, on-campus library collections in order to make their content more accessible to the university community. These projects support the campus collections by expanding each collection's presence as an educational resource while also supporting the mission of 小蓝视频 Library to engage with other offices on campus in new and positive ways.

As services and collections may change, please confirm current hours and operating status directly with partners prior to visiting.

Center for Language Exploration, Acquisition & Research (CLEAR) Resource Collection

CLEAR holds approximately 3,300 foreign language items which include films, textbooks, audio books, workbooks, dictionaries and self-teaching materials. The collection is searchable through the WRLC catalog. We welcome suggestions for new materials; just contact us and let us know what you'd be interested in. We are always looking to expand the collection, so if you have materials related to language or linguistics that you would like to donate, please contact us or stop by the Center. Contributions to our collections are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
