Finding Your Way Around the Pfau Library Building: Introduction
EXPLANATION
PFAU LIBRARY BUILDING (PL) IS NOT EQUAL TO THE JOHN M. PFAU LIBRARY (PFAU LIBRARY).
How can this be? Although the building is named for the library, the library does not occupy all of it.
MORE THAN THE LIBRARY
The library building houses all of the following and more:
Information Technology Services
- Administrative Computing & User Experience
- Information Security
- Institutional Intelligence
- Multimedia & Immersive Technologies
- Strategic Technology Initiatives
- Technology Operations & Customer Support
Self-instructional computer labs
Technology Support Center
Coyote OneCard
Classrooms
The John M. Pfau Library
- Special Collections & University Archives
- Institute for Watershed Resiliency (formerly Water Resources Institute)
- Innovation Lab & Studio
- Starbucks
Many, many folks end up lost at the library without enough information to identify where they need to go. Get as much detail as you can if someone tells you, "It's in the library." What PL room number do you need? Is there a name associated with the room number, for example, Coyote Radio & Advertising? Is there a particular person you need to see? If so, what is their name?
MOST, BUT NOT ALL OF THIS BUILDING IS THE JOHN M. PFAU LIBRARY
The portion of this building that houses Information Technology Services (known as the "Wedge" or "Library Wedge") is on the far left, behind the trees in this photo. See the detailed view below.
