Inasmuch Foundation Collaborative Learning Center

Technology and collaboration in the Law Library

The Inasmuch Foundation Collaborative Learning Center (CLC) combines advanced technology with the scholarly mission of the Law Library. A $1.5 million grant from Inasmuch Foundation of Oklahoma City made possible the transformation of 8,000 square feet of the Donald E. Pray Law Library, and the CLC opened in fall 2016.
