Located on the third floor of the Miller Nichols Library, the Digital Collaboration Studio is a cooperative research and teaching space managed by the Library’s Digital Scholarship Services department. The Studio includes an open area with mobile furniture, a Bookeye 5 scanner, and high-definition monitors; a seminar room with video conferencing capability and digital whiteboard; and small collaboration rooms with high-definition monitors. The Studio also features an easy to use audio and video Recording Studio (310C) for oral histories and podcasts. Students, faculty and staff can reserve the Recording Studio, Collaboration Rooms, and Seminar Room on the Library website.
The Collaboration Lab provides four workstations with specialized research software for UMKC faculty, staff, and student use. The workstations are available on a first-come-first served basis, with a requested maximum use time of two consecutive hours.
Faculty and staff can make one-time reservations for the entire Digital Collaboration Studio in order to host classes or workshops. The Digital Collaboration Studio is not available as a space for classes to meet on a permanent basis, nor for faculty to hold office hours. Make a reservation for your class or workshop by contacting UMKC Libraries Digital Scholarship Services. Reservations must be made more than 10 business days in advance, so please plan ahead.
