Facilities and Services.Pub FACILITIES & SERVICES 153 Facilities & Services LIBRARY COLLECTIONS AND SERVICES The UNLV Libraries collection and services support new and existing academic programs, research activities, and the Las Vegas community. University Libraries include Lied, the main library, and three branch libraries: the Architecture Studies Library, located in the Sogg Architecture Building; the Curriculum Materials Library, located in the Carlson Education Building; and the Music Library, located in the Beam Music Center. University Libraries also support the Shadow Lane Campus and the William F. Harrah College of Hotel Administration Singapore Campus through online collections and services. Separately administered by the William S. Boyd School of Law, the Wiener-Rogers Law Library, founded in 1998, is the largest law library in the state of Nevada, and offers a collection of more than 300,000 volumes covering most primary sources of American law, nearly 1,000 law journals, and a growing collection of treatises on all aspects of law. Library facilities on campus are heavily used by students, faculty, staff, and community members and were visited more than 1.5 million times in 2007. Lied Library, which opened to the public on January 8, 2001, is a 302,000 square foot, five-story building and the only research library serving southern Nevada, southern Utah, northwest Arizona, and parts of California. University Libraries offer electronic access to the library catalog, to over 350 electronic research tools, to 25,000 full-text electronic journals, and to 225,000 electronic texts. Access is provided from more than 450 public computer workstations within Lied and from remote sites for authorized users. Wireless internet is also available throughout all UNLV Libraries sites. In addition to its million plus-volume book collection, Lied library offers extensive collections in media, government documents, periodicals, reference materials, maps and microfilm. The Special Collections Department documents the unique contributions of the region, preserving the rich history of Southern Nevada with core materials on Las Vegas, gaming and its history, and the exploration of the American West. The Center for Gaming Research and the Oral History Research Center are also part of the UNLV Libraries, located in Special Collections. Lied Library has applied new and emerging technologies in areas of strategic advantage, such as radio frequency identification of items to better inventory and control library materials, an automated storage and retrieval system that ensures the most efficient use of space and construction dollars for coming decades, a digitization initiative to preserve and disseminate its unique holdings in online formats, a multi-media development studio, and a multi-media distribution system to route digital sound, graphics and images to desktop workstations within the libraries. Recent advances include the conversion of many print reserve readings and recorded music to electronic files that are accessed approximately 150,000 times each year and membership in LINK+, enabling UNLV students, staff and faculty to search for and borrow over 8 million books and documents from over 40 libraries throughout California and Nevada directly from our library catalog. Not surprisingly, the Libraries' instructional offerings continue to evolve in order to keep pace with the growth of library research technology. In addition to formal instruction efforts, University Libraries also support student learning and scholarship through initiatives such as the Undergraduate Peer Research Coaches Program and the Libraries Award for Undergraduate Research. Libraries membership includes the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI), the Scholarly Publishing & Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC), and several national consortia of academic libraries that cooperate in collection development activities.

The new plan focuses on the ultimate development capacities of the Main Campus and the Shadow Lane Campus. This effort outlines the optimal development patterns and the necessary support infrastructure for the entire institution. Complete details concerning the Campus Master Plan are available online at http://www.UNLV.edu/masterplan. The plan establishes a framework for coordinating development and physical change on each campus. Specifically, the plan fulfills the following goals: Growth and Capacity Assesses and quantifies the campus' ideal development capacity including thresholds where significant infrastructure improvements are required to support the desired Distinctive Environment Identifies appropriate development patterns and design guidelines representing the campus' urban and high desert environment. Image and Identity Establishes planning recommendations and design guidelines that will provide a high quality image and identity for the campus. Student Life Improves the physical environment for students in terms of facility types and quality. Master Plan Implementation Establishes a flexible overall planning framework that will define general directions while maintaining the ability to respond to unanticipated opportunities. The UNLV campus planning philosophy is founded on the premise that a campus exists as a place for people, including those who attend as students, those who serve as education and research professionals, and those who live in the surrounding community. To that end, UNLV is engaged in the planning stages of Midtown UNLV, a public-planning partnership to create a vibrant university district. By collaborating with private developers, business and residential neighbors, and other public groups, university officials hope to create a neighborhood that will include retail shopping, housing, mass transit, entertainment, and educational opportunities.

  • Board of Regents Briefing Paper
    BOARD OF REGENTS BRIEFING PAPER 1. AGENDA ITEM TITLE: 2021-23 Biennial Operating Budget / 2021 Deferred Maintenance Projects MEETING DATE: May 8, 2020 2. BACKGROUND & POLICY CONTEXT OF ISSUE: According to the Board of Regents Handbook, Title 4, Chapter 10, Section 26: Existing Facility and Infrastructure Needs Effective with the 2011 capital improvement budget cycle described in Subsection 5, every even-numbered year each institution must plan for existing facility and infrastructure needs by requesting funding for capital renewal, plant adaption, and deferred maintenance projects. The budgeted figure for these projects shall be two percent of the insured replacement value for owned facilities five or more years since construction or a major building renovation, excluding storage facilities and auxiliary enterprise buildings (e.g. resident halls and athletic facilities). In calculating the amount budgeted for existing facility and infrastructure, the state revenues request for Higher Education Capital Construction (HECC) and Special Higher Education Capital Construction (SHECC) are in addition to the two percent threshold, and may not be applied to the amount budgeted for this purpose. The Chancellor shall establish procedures to standardize the manner in which projects associated with improving existing facilities and infrastructure are identified and ranked. Historically, NSHE received $15 million each biennium for deferred maintenance from HECC and SHECC ($10 million from state funds and $5 million from the SHECC). While NSHE institutions have complied with Board policy, submitting “Two Percent” project lists for consideration by the Board of Regents and the State Public Works Division, none of the projects have been recommended by the State Public Works Board for inclusion in the Governor’s recommended budget.

  • Welcome to the UNLV Lingo Glossary
    Welcome to the UNLV Lingo Glossary Colleges and universities have their own unique set of abbreviations, acronyms, jargon, and terminology. Use this glossary to get familiarized with our lingo. Help us grow and improve the glossary by letting us know if there’s a term missing – we’ll be happy to add it along with the description for how it’s used at UNLV. Email us at [email protected]. Let’s get started with learning the Lingo! ABD All But Dissertation A title used to describe a doctoral candidate that has completed all their coursework and exam requirements, but still needs to write their dissertation. Accreditation The University of Nevada, Las Vegas is accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities. Accreditation of an institution of higher education by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities indicates that it meets or exceeds criteria for the assessment of institutional quality evaluated through a peer review process. An accredited college or university is one which has available the necessary resources to achieve its stated purposes through appropriate educational programs, is substantially doing so, and gives reasonable evidence that it will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Institutional integrity is also addressed through accreditation. Accreditation by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities is not partial but applies to the institution as a whole. As such, it is not a guarantee of every course or program offered, or the competence of individual graduates. Rather, it provides reasonable assurance about the quality of opportunities available to students who attend the institution.
