The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) announced today that it has opened its Applied Engineering and Technology (AET) Library, the nation’s first completely bookless brick-and-mortar library on a college or university campus.

Skilled science and engineering librarians are available during library hours to help students who need research assistance. Read more>>
