The final phase of work at Collegiate Learning Centre has started and will be completed in late September. It involves all the areas not covered by previous redevelopment projects. These include the main study areas upstairs and the PC rooms used for teaching. By the end of the work, the building will be completely refurbished and will be a much more inviting place to study
There will be some disruption over the summer. There’ll be fewer study spaces and some books may not be immediately available. However the building will remain open. To keep up to date about alternative study spaces and how to access essential books visit the Collegiate Redevelopment Blog.
