Students Share Their Love for the Library
Thank you for letting 
us know what you love about the library!
Last month, on Valentine’s Day (February 13th and 14th) we held a drop-in feedback event to find out what you, our students, think about the library. Using sticky notes or markers, students were encouraged to share their candid thoughts with us on our rolling board.
Our goal was to gather your thoughts, positive and negative, about the library space, amenities, and staff. A whopping 131 of you stopped by to tell us what you think!
When it comes to space, students are huge fans of the 5th Floor, saying “I love the 5th Floor vibes!” and “5th Floor by the windows has my heart”. You particularly enjoyed the windows, furniture options, and the ability to socialize.
Many of you also loved the silence, particularly on the 4th Floor, saying “Love the small rooms for quiet study” and “I love the peace & quiet.” We’re happy to provide spaces that support many different types of study needs.
You also shared the different ways you relax in the library, saying “I love the coloring pages + pencils available for when ppl need a brain break” and “Love the puzzles ya’ll leave out for us!”
Other students shared constructive feedback, requesting additional microwaves, study tables, and standing desks. Your feedback is very important to us. We’ll be compiling and evaluating everything you shared with us and will use it to inform future updates and improvements to the library.
In addition to the survey, we also held a raffle to win a library care package. Congratulations to our raffle winners Monisha Sathyanarayanan, School of Medicine and Melanie Perez, School of Health Professions!
Thank you again for stopping by and sharing your thoughts with us! We’re here for you and are working every day to make the library an amazing place to study and relax.
