Hatch Learning Commons
Hatch Learning Commons provides you with dedicated learning and teaching support all year long, in person, over the phone, in web chats, or via virtual reference sessions. It consists of both library services and student academic support services. The physical Hatch Learning Commons, located right across the street from the Longmeadow Campus, provides a friendly and accessible space for students and faculty to work toward our shared goals of learning and teaching. The Learning Commons includes reservable study rooms equipped with collaborative technology, group study spaces on the main floor, and quiet study spaces on the lower and upper floors. The Course Reserves shelves provide access to common course texts for use within the library, allowing students to save money on expensive textbooks. We also offer a robust selection of popular fiction, non-fiction, and DVDs for check out.
Our website offers 24/7 access to full-text articles from thousands of scholarly journals and major newspapers, as well as to e-books and other electronic resources.
Peer Tutors and Academic Coaches are available in the Learning Commons for help with classes, general study skills, test preparation, note taking, organization, time management and much more. Students can schedule an appointment to meet with an on ground tutor or academic coach through the Bay Path Portal.
Online tutoring services through tutor.com are also offered to students on-demand 24 hours a day. Students can access a variety of support services including content based tutoring, writing support and academic skill development. Students can access this online tutoring with their University email.
