The University Libraries provide several electronic information services. The Library Information System (LIS),
available over the campus network, provides access to 14 databases of information, including the Library Catalog.
The Catalog contains records of items owned by the libraries, such as books, journals, technical reports, government
documents, musical scores, sound recordings and videotapes.
The catalog may also be searched through Unicorn, the new library system which has replaced LS/2000.
The Library Catalog on Unicorn includes not only the latest additions to the libraries' collections, but also lists
materials that are currently on order.
Finally, the University Libraries allow free access to OCLC's numerous First Search databases through LIS and
telnet sessions.

The University Teaching Center (UTC)
¥ Established in January 1982, the University Teaching Center identifies, organizes and conducts programs to
improve the quality of instruction at CMU.
¥ Incoming Faculty Orientation.
ÒSurviving, Enjoying and Flourishing at Carnegie MellonÓ is a three day faculty orientation that focuses on
teaching effectively and on balancing the diverse roles of faculty life.
¥ Faculty Luncheon Seminars
Each semester the UTC offers a series of Luncheon Seminars to all members of the faculty. These seminars
provide a forum for faculty to discuss issues about learning and teaching which transcend disciplinary
boundaries.
¥ Feedback Mechanisms for Faculty: The Consultation Process
For faculty members interested in improving a course, the Teaching Center staff collects data, analyzes,
interprets and then translates this into recommendations for specific strategies to modify the course or
classroom behavior.
¥ Consultations about Course Evaluations
The Teaching Center recommends distributing early course evaluations 3-4 weeks into a semester to improve
teaching and the course. They will aid faculty members in designing, interpreting and acting upon the results of
those evaluations.
¥ Creation and Implementation of Departmental and College TA Programs
The UTC aids departments and colleges in assessing their needs and creating TA programs to address those
needs.
¥ Graduate Student Seminar Series
The UTC offers modules and special topic sessions on issues surrounding teaching and learning for those TA's
currently teaching or planning to teach in the future.
¥ Response to the Changing Needs of Departments and Colleges
The University Teaching Center offers expertise and resources to departments and colleges to meet their
changing needs.
