Library: New Library Project

Planning is underway for a new library at the University of Portland.  In 2006 the University completed a Library Needs Assessment Study, guided by the Task Force for Library Facility Planning, and with extensive student and faculty input.  The Library Study recommends:

• A new, 64,000-70,000 square foot, student-centered University Library;
• A highly flexible, technologically rich teaching Library to lead and energize learning on campus and beyond; and
• A signature building that supports the institutional mission and the University of Portland's commitment to be a great Catholic University.
