Ryerson University Library - Changes To Library Space

Changes To Library Space

  • Relocation of staff - the 1st floor of the Library building, which was previously occupied by the Faculty of Social Work, became vacant and was allocated to the Library. A number of staff in the Collections Team, and some librarians have been relocated to work out of this space.
  • New study spaces – as a result of the relocation of staff, the 5th floor was redesigned to allow for increased study space, with additional group study rooms and a planned study room with 26 individual carrels. Offices previously occupied by librarians on the 7th floor are now available as group study rooms. The Library obtained the 4th floor when the School of Urban and Regional Planning relocated. This floor was renovated into an open work area for students with special rooms set aside for grad students.

Famous quotes containing the words library and/or space:

    With sighs more lunar than bronchial,
    Howbeit eluding fallopian diagnosis,
    She simpers into the tribal library and reads
    That Keats died of tuberculosis . . .
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Shall we now
    Contaminate our fingers with base bribes,
    And sell the mighty space of our large honors
    For so much trash as may be grasped thus?
    I had rather be a dog and bay the moon
    Than such a Roman.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
