The Library's new layout

During Spring Break the Albertsons Library was busy making the first floor more open and comfortable: we installed brand new carpet on the entire first floor of the library, and redesigned the space to include more group study tables next to wall outlets. You get better views of the Greenbelt, too.

The library's first floor looks and feels more open. Stop on by and check it out!
