Welcome Back to Burke
Join Us on October 6
Join us for Burke Library's grand re-opening celebration at 4 p.m. on October 6! We are excited to officially welcome you all back after a summer spent renovating the first floor, creating bigger and better spaces to support teaching, learning, and research. Come enjoy cake & punch, remarks by Vice President for Libraries and Information Technology Joe Shelley, and showcases of new spaces and services.

Our New Design
We are very excited to share our new and improved classroom, areas to highlight our physical collections, shared service points for assistance, virtual reality spaces, soundproof rooms for podcast production and more, different types of study spaces for individual and group work, permanent exhibit spaces, new offices, and other great new spaces.
