Instructional Materials Center



The Instructional Materials Center (IMC) is located on the second floor and 4th tier, Rooms 202 and 218 of the Drain-Jordan Library. It contains picture books, informational books, young adult books, award winning books, instructional kits, elementary grade textbooks and more that would be used in teaching classes for grades K-12.

Also available are three Ellison™ XL Letter Machines with five types and sizes of alphabet and number dies. There are a large variety of shapes to use for an unlimited number of projects. The possible combinations for posters, bulletin boards, displays and learning materials are endless. You are encouraged to bring your own paper but if necessary, construction paper is available for purchase. Other materials that may be used with the Letter Machines such as sponge sheets, magnetic sheets and vinyl cling are also available for purchase at nominal cost. This equipment and dies are in the adjacent room's inner room.

Laminating is also available. Your items may be left with the IMC Associate or at the Circulation Desk with your name and a phone number where you can be reached. Work is usually available for pick up within 24 hours during the normal work week. Laminating is not done on weekends. A nominal fee is charged to cover the cost of materials.
