Dawn McMillan - teaching and learning case study - flexible learning spaces in the Engineering and Physical Sciences library

As the manager of the Engineering and Physical Sciences libraries Dawn McMillan has to deal with a variety of student needs. Providing access to electronic resources and creating space for both individual and group study places new demands on resources, furniture, and staff. As she discusses, flexible learning requires flexible spaces to work in.

"Students are actually telling us in very direct terms that the way the surroundings look is actually very important to their thinking and their ability to study."
