You can talk out loud

In fact, you can even check out a smoothie along with that reference material.

“In many ways, we are breaking the rules of traditional college libraries,” said Kathleen Baril, director of ONU’s Heterick Memorial Library. “Library research on a university campus is not what it used to be, and our new library space reflects that. The focus is on best utilizing the library space to meet the needs of today’s college students.”
