Did you get a haircut? Something looks different...

Actually, we tore down some walls and removed some vacant offices on the first floor. McIntyre Library is transitioning from a traditional quick-answer reference desk model to a Research Center layout that facilitates more in-depth collaborative and consultative interactions between librarians and students. 

As part of that transition, walls were removed, making librarian offices more accessible and opening up prime space overlooking the campus mall for student study space. 

Stay tuned as the space and the library service continue evolving this fall.
