Mount Allison University has announced its plans for the renovation of the RP Bell Library Hub for Innovation and Learning. MtA will create new spaces for student and faculty support; a Universal Design for Learning Classroom; collaboration, study, and gathering spaces; and a data and digital scholarship lab. The renovated building’s design will draw on consultations with Indigenous representatives and pursue the Green Globes certification system. MtA will build an interim library to provide a space for the core collections during these renovations, after which it will be converted into a multi-purpose athletics complex. MtA has received $36M in funding for the project from the Government of Canada and the Government of New Brunswick.
