Physical Spaces

UNB Libraries are pleased to announce the completion of a new dual monitor lab on the third floor of the Harriet Irving Library, in room 310!

Be sure to check out this newly developed space where you can study, learn, and create on brand new Dell workstation class computers with dual monitors!

Recently at the Harriet Irving Library, Microforms has begun its move into a newly developed space in the basement! While there is some material left on the third floor, much of the collection and equipment has moved downstairs.

The Microforms office has been relocated to Room 309 in the HIL.

Still on the 3rd floor, it is now located at the back of the building, near the rear elevator, across from the Government Documents, Data, and Maps/GIS Department.

Group Study Rooms are now bookable online!

Renovations are currently underway in the first floor central hallway and the central staircase of the Harriet Irving Library in Fredericton. Over the next week or so, there will be periods when these areas are closed to library visitors. Watch for signs to indicate alternate routes through the building where necessary! If you need assistance, please ask at any one of the HIL service desks.
