RT 301 - formerly the Digital Design Studio
SPRING 2025:
Due to staffing reductions, we have consolidated the service point for Digital Design Services with the first floor Library & Research Help Desk. You may now make room reservations and borrow equipment, software, and room keys right inside the front doors of the library. Questions? Give us a call at (216) 687-2479.
EXPERTISE: Digital Consultations
Working on a digital, multimodal, or multimedia project this semester? We can help! Look over our guide on multimodal assignments for recommendations on digital tools and other resources, and consider making an appointment via phone, chat, or web conference for a remote Digital Design Studio consultation with Ben Richards for help navigating the process.
