Rolvaag Library is a particularly difficult space to navigate because of its highly complex layout. Navigating a building should not add to the stress of being a first time visitor or visitor from another culture, a first-generation student, an individual with a hardware\/software failure, or those with an upcoming research project. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Goals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">LITS is working to create a welcoming and positive environment for all students, staff, faculty, and visitors, where one can easily and independently negotiate the library, and also find a helpful staff member to help guide them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Actions Taken<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. Through the space audit identify areas that could benefit from better signage to help students, faculty and staff navigate the library.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. Create a welcome sign to welcome all students, faculty and staff to the library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Accomplishments so Far&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We developed new signage for the library entrance that states our space strives to be diverse, inclusive, and a welcoming space.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chair\/Lead: LITS Events and Engagement Team (EET) Members: Joanna Hunt The Problem Rolvaag Library and the Halvorson Music Library can be intimidating places for new visitors (students, staff, and faculty).
