Learning Center at Ivy Tech Indianapolis

*Relocation Notice* Library and Tutoring services will continue in the LRC through the remainder of Fall 2024. Services will be temporarily unavailable between December 18 and January 3 in order to relocate all services and resources to a suite of rooms in the North Meridian Center, near room 400. This relocation is intended to move library and tutoring services closer to students and their classrooms, making it easier to access academic support services. Visit https://ivytechindyreimagined.com for more info.
