Located in the John E. Robbins library on the BU campus, this new space brings together librarians and technical support, digital resources such as productivity software, electronic journals and databases, print resources, and the latest in technology with the goal of assisting BU students in becoming information literate.

Reception, with light refreshments, is at 2:00 p.m. and an official program will begin at 2:15, followed by a ribbon cutting and a demonstration of the equipment in the centre.
