Learning Commons at the Library: Survey question 2

Thank you for your feedback on our first Learning Commons at the Library survey question! We appreciate learning your thoughts on the physical library and Learning Commons spaces we spent the summer updating.

Our second survey question relating to our updated spaces and partnership with the Learning Commons is now live. We would like to know: What would you change about the second floor of the library?

We’ll collect responses to this second survey question until Monday, October 23rd. You can respond anonymously via drop boxes placed in the McDonough lobby and across from the library’s entrance in Jones or through our online survey form.
