Welcome to Durham Tech Library's New Blog!

Welcome to the Durham Tech Library blog! I have been a librarian at Durham Tech since October 1989. In the past year, we have made significant improvements to the library space. Some of these, such as a library classroom and better soundproofing, have been needed since the library opened in 1987. In addition to new paint and carpet, we created a large group study room (learning commons), doubled the size of the computer lab to create a library instruction classroom/open computer lab, and added acoustical panels and sound masking. We also replaced all the chairs in the library. It is our hope that students with all learning styles can find a comfortable place to study in the library. According to the network administrator for the college, a greatly improved wireless network will be in place by the end of 2011. Please let us know how we can help you to be successful in your classes at Durham Tech. All the best, Irene Laube
