This past summer, the University of New Haven’s Peterson Library underwent some much needed renovations.

Once viewed as “outdated” and “drab,” the library is now a modern, extremely accommodating location.

“Students that came back from last year were amazed at how different it looks!” said Dean Bergstrom, the university’s Access Services Supervisor, in regards to the renovations.

The library’s makeover included freshly painted walls, a clean, carpeted floor and a shiny new University of New Haven seal. Not only does the library have an updated look, but also updated technology.

The lower level is specifically designed to accommodate all media with new, longer tables with electrics outlets, making modern group study easy.

“I’ve only started working here this summer, but from what I’ve heard, these renovations have been a great improvement!” said Bergstrom. “The new layout is more conducive to successful studying.”

If all of the above mentioned is not enough to entice one to explore the newly renovated Peterson Library, then perhaps noting this rumor about campus will do it for you; the new chairs are “super comfy.”
