Because of the generous support of many to "Love our Library"—the Robertson Library Revitalization Campaign, we are thrilled to announce that phase one renovations will officially begin on Monday, May 4, 2026, and continue through the second half of August.

This important milestone reflects the University’s commitment and donors’ investment to help transform the Library into a more modern, accessible, and inspiring space—one that will enrich the experience of students, faculty, and all who rely on it as a vital hub for learning, research, and connection.

To mark this significant occasion, you are warmly invited to attend a special kick-off event on Friday, May 1, at 10:00 am in the Robertson Library lobby to celebrate the beginning of renovations.

This renovation is a strong investment in our University's shared future. While there will be some changes in how we deliver our services during construction, we are confident that with the professionalism, positivity, flexibility, and continued dedication of our librarians and staff, disruption will be minimal.
