Opportunity:
The library space on campus just simply isn't enough and the hours that they are open aren't long enough. The lack of space that the University gives college students is just simply not enough. The libraries at UF are only open 24/7 for the week of finals and it should be open 24/7 all year round.
Solution:
The solution for Library space at UF should be extending the hours and adding more library on campus. After interviewing people it is shown that this problem exists on a daily basis and it truly does effect people's lives. Extending the hours longer will make it easier for everyone to go to the library and choose the time they want to go at. During finals week it gets so busy so if there was more space on campus it makes it way easier for everyone.
Hey Nick, I think that this is a good opportunity and solution. The libraries at the University of Florida are very limited in space because during popular times, are packed with people that want to study. This is great that people want to do so, but the problem is that we do not have enough room for everyone and we have to work on this. I think that your ideas for changing the libraries are very achievable, and because of this I think that you have a valid argument for changing the libraries.
ReplyDeleteNick,
ReplyDeleteI think this is a great idea that warrants additional investigation. For starters, if they did decide to build another library on campus, where would it be located? How big would it be? They recently built the Newell Hall study space but I think it is too small and too unorganized that I don't even attempt to find a place to sit in there. Would it be another library or another similar study space?
Nick, I think that the opportunity you have presented is a very good one. Lots of students each day are affected by the space and hours at our libraries. Additionally, I think that the solution that you proposed is one that is very practical and necessary for the success of students campus wide. Hopefully this is a problem that the university can look into solving as may students feel this way about the library situation.
