Reilly Learning Commons

The Weinberg Memorial Library is set to undergo significant changes to better serve its community in celebration of its 20th anniversary. Through a collaborative process involving librarians, students, faculty, and university administration, we aim to reshape spaces to promote group study, technology access, and innovative learning experiences. New flexible areas will include living room-style spaces and media labs, along with improved technology resources. Join us in this exciting journey towards a student-centered, collaborative library that supports creativity and academic success.
