Libraries announce Grand Opening of Library Terrace

June 1, 2011

On Friday, June 3rd the Drexel University Libraries will celebrate the grand opening of the Library Learning Terrace, located at 33rd & Race Streets, with a twilight opening complete with music from Drexel student DJ Mike Mannix, activities, giveaways and prizes. The celebration will begin at 9 p.m. with an official unveiling scheduled for 9:30 p.m.. The unveiling will be the first opportunity for the community to view this new innovative space. In fitting with the twilight theme, the space will just be opening for the evening as most buildings and halls begin to close their doors. The Library Learning Terrace will be a facility that is open 24 hours a day and 7 days a week for student use, allowing students an innovative and inviting space to study at whatever time works best for their schedule. Also fitting of the theme is the flexibility of the space. The term twilight often refers to something not clearly defined, something that is still being developed, or an intermediate state. The Learning Terrace is not yet clearly defined. As student learners begin to use the space, their needs will determine the future of the space and what it may or may not house.
