East Campus Library services available at LDRF


After 53 years of operation, the C.Y. Thompson  Library (CYT)  is slated for a major renovation. From September through October, students can visit the Library Depository Retrieval Facility (LDRF)  Reading Room to view or check out  reserved course materials, pick up delivery materials or study. Located in the north west part of East Campus on the East Campus loop, the LDRF offers extended hours.


Later in October these services will move to Filley Hall in the old Dairy Store location where they will stay until the project’s completion.

As for CYT, to be named the Dinsdale Family Learning Commons, the 1960’s building was in need of a modern update to accommodate today's student needs. The renovations will be centered around a more technology rich, collaborative learning environmentA core collection of books and a testing center will be located in the lower level with a learning commons and coffee shop on the main floor.  The building will also house the Engler Entrepreneurial Program.

The renovation project is to be completed before spring 2021.To learn more about the project visit: https://libraries.unl.edu/cy-thompson-renovation
