UBC Library
As part of the Library’s commitment to enhance student spaces, Koerner Library will be undergoing renovations on its third floor beginning late October.
Completed renovations will feature more study areas, casual seating, and reference computers for student use. While construction is underway, students will be redirected to access other computer stations on other levels within Koerner. Faculty, staff and campus visitors may expect to see various directional signage in the library while construction is underway.
The renovated space will be completed by early spring.
