For Faculty

Gathering of WPI faculty in front of classroom

The Gordon Library offers many services to support WPI faculty in your many roles, as researchers, teachers, experts, and members of the community.  Among the services we offer are the following:  

Course Reserves Our expanded course reserves service includes providing print reserves, a list of digital course materials for classes, identifying alternative library or open content, and providing access to scanning equipment.  These services can help assure that all students have access to essential course materials while reducing student costs.  We thank WPI faculty for participating in this service!

Course Support: We also work with faculty to support all your teaching and student learning activities through our Instruction Services and Open Educational Resources. 

Publishing, Promotion, and Profile Support: Gordon Library supports faculty in sharing your research and knowledge through publishing, and telling the story of your contributions whether as part of your promotion and tenure review, or by curating your online profiles. We also offer support on issues including retaining your copyrights and Open Access publishing.

Research Support:  Gordon Library offers faculty research support in a variety of forms, including online guides and tutorials and research consultations at the library or at your office.  We can help you find funding for your research, help you find relevant research in library collections, manage your citations, and explore research published by fellow members of the WPI faculty.
