Hi everyone! My name is Dennie and I’m one of the senior ambassadors for Spring 2018. I’m in my 4A term of Joint Honours Psychology and Science and I’ve been a part of the library ambassador program since the very beginning! I wanted to share why I love this program so much and what it’s done to help me and other students.

Thank you for your patience and understanding over the past six months! We have nearly completed our planned renovations at Davis Centre Library.

• Nicer washrooms
• Updated entrance
• New study spaces
• Student lounge space
• Printers, computers, scanners and photocopiers conveniently located near the IST Help Desk

This is my first term as a Library Ambassador, and I’m really enjoying my time working with the library staff and students. I have been able to extend my involvement with the University beyond my faculty while learning something new at every shift!
