New desk puts library services right up front for clients

The service desk in the Leddy Library provides a welcome to patrons as they enter the building, say students who like the new look.

“I like it,” said Jallandra Robinson-Warden, a second-year sociology and criminology major, as she took in the renovations. “It looks more sophisticated.”

Her friend Liz Hesley, a second-year psychology student, called the layout professional and approachable.

“It gives the library a whole new edge,” she said.

The new design is intended as a “one-stop” solution for library users. It combines reference, circulation and information technology assistance.
