Mathematical Sciences Library (MATH) reopened with a refresh and new testing room

September 9th, 2025

The Mathematical Sciences Library (MATH) has reopened, welcoming patrons back to a refreshed and updated environment. Visitors can enjoy newly carpeted areas, upgraded furniture, and additional group study rooms. The library’s redesign features a thoughtful rearrangement of bookshelves to increase natural light and create a brighter, more inviting space for study and research.

A testing room is now available

A highlight of the reopening is the new testing room, designed for individual use. This small, windowless room is equipped with a desktop computer and also provides space for personal laptops. It is intended for students taking online exams and will be reservable upon request. Please note that the testing room is not proctored, as Libraries does not offer proctoring services. The reservation system for the testing room can be found on the Libraries website.

Looking forward

Library hours remain unchanged and can be found on the Libraries Hours page. Staff continue to assist with material requests and any questions.

The recent updates and new facilities reflect the Mathematical Sciences Library’s ongoing commitment to providing a comfortable, modern, and functional space to support academic success.
