UBC Library has bolstered its standing as a top-tier research library, according to rankings from the U.S.-based Association of Research Libraries (ARL).
UBC ranks 16 out of 115 ARL universities (compared to 24 last year), and third among Canadian academic institutions, in the recently released ARL Investment Index. The result reflects UBC Library’s investment in collections, services and resources – including a digitization centre, a Data/GIS (Geographic Information Systems) Lab, and new learning spaces such as the Canaccord Learning Commons.
This is very impressive.
