The Eugene S. Farley Library received renovations to its Alden Learning Commons, also referred to as the lower level, 24/7 floor.
The extensive makeover to the Learning Commons includes new carpeting, furniture, paintwork and computer facilities.
Additional rennovations include news tables and chairs to the student study rooms on the lower level, 24/7 floor, an increase in space with new tables in the study cubbies on the 24/7 floor and an update in all computers within the library.
The library administration thanked Student Government and the campus Facilities for their pivotal role in this renovation.
In addition to the enhancements, the university also introduced the newly established Commuter Lounge on the lower level floor. The lounge had previously been on the second floor of the Student Union Building (SUB). The space offers a convenient space for commuter students to study and relax. Commuter students can swipe their student ID to access the space.
The library encourages all members of the campus community to take advantage of the recent developments, which were designed to foster an enriched learning environment and sense of belonging.
The library is open from 8 a.m. to midnight from Monday through Thursday; and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Fridays. On weekends, the library is open on Saturday, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday, from 3 to 11 p.m.
The library’s basement is accessible after hours from the South Street WIN card entrance and from the main entrance during regular library open hours.
