Working towards the academic library of the future
The library of the future is a space that enriches the entire Maastricht University community, extending its role beyond that of a traditional book collection. Randwyck Library is a prime example of this evolution. Although the renovated library has changed its appearance, its essence remains unchanged, providing a space that supports the academic community in gaining, creating and sharing scientific information. This requires an environment where tranquility, inclusivity, and inspiration are central. The new design is flexible, accommodating the constantly evolving methods of learning and teaching. Randwyck Library is well-prepared to support these changing needs and meet the demands of the future academic community.
