Mission Statement
The Iott Center supports the curriculum at SJJ. The purpose of the Center is to make available the most scholarly and up-to-date materials in a variety of formats for class assignments, and to give each student the opportunity to learn and explore.
Modern Update
During the Summer of 2010, significant improvements were made in the IOTT Center. Today, it is a more student-friendly, technology-focused area.
Improvements include more comfortable furniture, an A+ Center Writing Lab, laptops for students to check out, and an added emphasis for online database research. A ‘Mac' Lab has been added for students and classroom use and will be used for academic research.
The physical upgrade to the IOTT Center creates a more relaxed feel which provides students with an environment of comfort and collegiality. Students using the IOTT Center will be better able to engage in learning in a more community-focused area.
In the Fall of 2015, the IOTT Center improved its learning environment once again. Removing a majority of book shelves for more modern learning resources including technology carrels, mointors and TV's, student friendly studying and gathering place. Study booths and ergonomic furniture were added to heighten interaction and guided study opportunities.
