The following Women's Center specific information is subject to change based on the rapidly developing public health response to COVID-19. We will update the information below as needed. For the most up-to-date information related to UMBC, please visit covid19.umbc.edu.

*Please note, this post was updated on 3/20/2020 at 11:30am to reflect the most recent UMBC guidance on distance learning and remote work for the remainder of the spring 2020 semester. Further edits to some services were made on 3/23/20.


Women's Center Hours of Operation
The Women's Center will continue providing support and services remotely for the rest of the spring semester based on the 3/19 guidance from UMBC beginning March 23rd. The Women's Center space including our lounge and lactation room will not be open until further notice. 

Individualized Support Meetings:
Beginning March 23rd, Women's Center professional staff will be available for individual meetings and support which we can provide via phone or video chat; to schedule an appointment, email womenscenter@umbc.edu. If you are already working with a specific staff member and need to set up additional meetings, feel free to reach out to the staff member you have been working with directly (via email or even g-chat!). 
Visit our website for all the ways we can provide you support during this time. 

Lactation and Wellness Room:
Due to UMBC's facilities remaining closed after spring break, the Women's Center cannot offer our lactation room to the community until further notice. 

Women's Center Program/Events Cancellations:
All Women's Center programming and events for the rest of the spring semester are either cancelled, postponed, or will be redesigned into a virtual format. We will release more information on changes to our programming calendar as we meet as a staff and hear from you, our community, on your needs, wants, and ideas to help us transform our community during these unprecedented times (truly - we welcome your ideas and feedback!). Please continue to closely monitor this myUMBC page and your email accounts as virtual options are made to accommodate our community members. We will post which events are going virtual on their specific events post via myUMBC.

The Women's Center will be working on transitioning some of our other services online. Community building, care, and support remain central to our mission though the way we deliver those services may vary with the precautionary measures that UMBC is asking us to uphold. We know that, even though UMBC's campus is closing and classes are moving online, our students, faculty, and staff will need support and community in this time--and the Women's Center hopes to continue doing what we do best to strengthen this campus! If you haven't already, follow us on social media as we plan to share resources and communicate more regularly through these platforms: Blog | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram  

Please also feel free to communicate with us through any of these channels with your needs and ideas to help us get through the remainder of the semester! 


Whether you're here with us in person or we're meeting in virtual space -- We see you. We believe you. You matter. And, we're here for you. 

The Women's Center Team

Library hours and services are in flux due to campus planning for COVID-19 (coronavirus). Please stay tuned to MyUMBC or the Library & Gallery website for the most recent information and hours.

All Library & Gallery events are canceled until at least April 6, per University policy. 

For research assistance, we encourage our users to contact us via email or our Ask a Librarian chat service.
 
Students and instructors with materials on course reserve:  some physical reserves materials may be available in our catalog as e-books, on sites that allow streaming of media items, or are accessible via the public domain. If the item is not available electronically, the Reserves (or ILL) staff, upon request, may be able to digitize assigned readings from items on Course Reserves and post to Blackboard. We are unable to reproduce content from a disc. Please allow a minimum of five business days for requests to digitize course materials. Staff will prioritize requests by the assignment due date whenever possible.

For requests to digitize course readings, please obtain the name and number of the course and share the digital copy with the Reserves staff (reserves-group@umbc.edu).

For inquiries regarding due dates and fines, nothing will become due from Sunday March 15th through Sunday March 22nd.  All USM libraries will be lenient with fines if campuses close post March 22nd. Note that some short-term loan items may become due whenever the owning library is open.  Patrons do need to be mindful of honoring such due dates – i.e. course reserves, and media items and equipment.
