This is your opportunity to see this new Engineering Library, hailed in the press as “bookless” despite having 10,000 print volumes. It is envisioned as an “Information Collaboratory” where students and faculty no longer rely on print books and journals. The intention is to have librarians working closely with faculty and researchers in their classrooms and labs.
