The Robertson Library team is looking forward to welcoming UPEI campus community members and visitors to our newly renovated spaces—the main lobby and adjoining all-gender washrooms, the central staircase, and the upper landing—this fall. Thanks to the efforts of the project contractors and UPEI Facilities Management (Capital Projects), work has been progressing well, but there have been a few delays. The full library reopening is now scheduled for Monday, September 21, 2026.

Since May, the Robertson Library has been operating a temporary service point in Library Annex, Room 235, from 9 am– 5 pm, Monday–Friday, and this will continue through Friday, September 18, 2026.

Evening and weekend printing/scanning support will remain unavailable until the Library’s main Service Desk reopens September 21, so please plan accordingly; if you have time-sensitive printing/scanning needs outside of the Room 235 service point hours, the Charlottetown Library Learning Centre (downtown) or the Staples Printing Centre may be able to assist.

In addition, McMillan Hall in the W.A. Murphy Student Centre has been booked for use throughout the day and evening as a student study space during the month of September. Remember to check out the new UPEI new UPEI Support Services Campus Map, created by UPEI Welcome Week and the UPEI Student Culture and Community Standards teams; the green icons on this map highlight buildings offering student study spaces.
