User Experience Team
We want your library experiences to be valuable ones. We are constantly asking questions and looking for ways to improve the Library’s website, facilities, collections, and services.
- How can we make it easier for you to access books and articles on our website?
- How can we make the Library more comfortable and conducive to your learning and research?
- How can we improve our services to make them more relevant and useful to you?
