New year, new look at Woodward Library

It’s 2011, and Woodward Library is proud to enter the new year with a new look. Late last fall, the Library’s lower level – also known as the Garden Level – was unveiled to the public after undergoing an extensive renovation. The handsome result is a user-centred, collaborative study space that features more natural light, increased seating and bookable group-study rooms.

The Woodward renovation is a great example of UBC Library’s commitment to enhancing student learning, which is a key plank of its strategic plan. Refurbishments are also underway at the David Lam and Law libraries.

Funding for the work at Woodward Library was provided by Classroom Services, UBC Properties Trust and UBC Library development funds.
