Library Renovations: The Planning has Started

[Originally published on the Library Renovations Blog on October 8, 2019

This past year a study for the renovation and expansion of the John L. Haar Library was developed through an iterative and collaborative process with Facilities Management and Operations, University Library staff, students, partners and other stakeholders through a series of workshops and "pop-up" events on campus. 

Many issues and concerns were identified, from needing more bookable study rooms, acoustics (noise!), access to power, and the need for more variety of seating. 

Now the details of the plan are being developed with construction starting in May 2020. 

This space will include updates and the planning.
