Shawinigan, Western Library celebrate major renovations

Cégep de Shawinigan and Western University have celebrated the results of major renovations to facilities on campus. Shawinigan celebrated the opening of its new pool after a $6M, 18-month renovation. The work included a complete renovation of the indoor pool, the stands, the changing rooms, and other spaces, as well as the purchase of a hoist to allow users with reduced mobility to access to the pool. Meanwhile, Western’s Weldon Library has undergone a $15M renovation that has revitalized the space with a two-storey student learning commons, increased seating, and a family room where graduate students with children can study or review items from the library.
