photo of HSL reference area circa 2003 Patrons affiliated with UB as well as the public have use of 26 computer workstations set up to provide optimal access to all the University Libraries' resources. In addition, patrons can use hundreds of print reference books and browse our current print journal issues.
photo of HSL Art Study Area circa 2002 The Art Study Area, located to the right of the main staircase, is one of our most popular gathering and study locations. Graced by framed prints of 19th Century Botanicals (an "Art in the Library" initiative), the bright, functional space has comfortable arm chairs and tables, and is located next door to one of two centrally located photocopy areas.
