The Collab Lab

The Collab Lab is a hands-on, creative space located on the first floor of the Jerome Library. It’s open to students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members.

Due to the shut down because of COVID-19, the Collab Lab will have our chat monitored from 9am to 5pm Monday-Friday.  Our listserv is also available collab-lab@listsbgsu.edu.  We will be tutoring upon request through WebEx.  E-mail the listserv or chat with us for an appointment.
