    I know a lot of the floors in the current library are hardly ever used and it's really creepy to study in some times

    Ha ha. 15-20 yrs ago it was creepy. It always reminded me of the library at the beginning of Ghostbusters. I swear it was haunted.

    Reasons I've heard are speculation, but if you guess you'll probably have few misses.

    As I understand, once Wyly Tower and Prescott are demolished the new library will take their place, but no parking structures or any inter-campus parking provisions are planned - the parking will just continue to be pushed to the outskirts of campus.

    When Les uses: new library he is not envisioning just an update to Prescott. What is being considered would be a new facility and organization that will bring together many varied services to support the student, faculty, and research communities of the University. This new facility will have a library as one of many tenants. I believe everyone will be pleased with what will be done.

    Though I am now retired I did a great deal of work on a replacement for our present service model and know that Les has a great program in mind for this facility.

    i replied to Dr. G on his facebook and this was how it went

    me: good deal about that new library, the current one has too many floors that aren't ever used and it gets really creepy studying there sometimes

    Dr. G:
    Agreed. Describing a 21st century library is a lot different. Probably not even best to call it a library

    The library is used by students. It's not empty.

    It does have WiFi.

    No, students can not connect their computers to the printer.
