The building has group study areas, computer workstations, and helpful staff for research questions. It is easy to navigate for newcomers and provides different learning and working environments.
Inside the building is a glass-covered courtyard with seating and tables for breaks. This bright, sheltered space makes the library a social gathering spot beyond just studying.
