Also there is a survey from ITHAKA that you may want to respond to...these avenues are important ways for the voice and experiences of our institutions (HBCU'S) to be heard. https://surveys.ithaka.org/jfe/form/SV_8qN8F2274hMBBBz For the AUC: The schools of the Atlanta University Center (Morehouse/Spelman/Clark Atlanta Univ/Interdenominational Theological Center, Morehouse School of Medicine) are extending the spring break for one additional week. So instead of ending COB 3/13 it will end COB 3/20. All institutions will move to online delivery of courses (a mix of synchronous and asynchronous) through the end of this spring semester. We are likely going to close our front doors to students, staff, faculty and visitors; but all library staff to report so that we can support the schools and the online learning that will be in place. (Yikes!) We have cancelled events, symposiums etc. Loretta Parham, CEO & Director Atlanta University Center Woodruff Library 111 James P.

In the meantime, the Buildings and Grounds staff are deep cleaning and preparing the campus facilities. The instructors have been asked to prepare for "in-case" by prepping for online instruction as an alternative. We use Canvas as our usual means of online course distribution, but the faculty was informed of several other venues that could be used if they preferred. The library is staying open using its usual Spring Break schedule of Monday - Friday 8am to 5pm. We also have hand sanitizer and Kleenex distributed around our counters and have made disinfectant wipes available to wipe public use items.
