The University Library is an interactive space. It is a place where people connect and engage; where students, faculty, staff, and local researchers gather to access knowledge, technologies, and services of intellectual discovery. So why do the library's buildings need to change? Our goal is to renovate our physical structures to best meet the changing needs of the Cal State LA community and to position the Library as a digitally-savvy active learning hub. We will be consolidating collections, integrating computing services, expanding shared learning commons and customizable spaces, and emphasizing a community-gathering environment.
