玛丽·艾德玛·皮尤图书馆学习和信息共享中心旨在成为艾伦代尔校区的知识中心. 它将超出任何人的预期，任何人都认为图书馆仅仅是一个印刷书籍和低声说话的家. In this new library, students will find a range of environments, from noisy to quiet, in which they can work on an assignment alone or in a group; receive coaching from a peer consultant in research, writing, or presenting; practice a new skill or play with a new idea; learn something unexpectedly; engage easily with each other in spaces engineered to accommodate the sounds of natural conversation; or curl up by the fireplace in a contemplative space with the best views on campus. 学生们将在考虑到他们的需求而精心设计的建筑中完成所有这些事情-正确的照明, the right furniture, the right resources, the right services, the right spaces, and the right amount of flexibility. 随着玛丽·艾德玛·皮尤图书馆学习和信息共享中心成为每个学生在大峡谷大学经历中不可或缺的一部分，“去图书馆”将具有全新的意义.
