Exciting updates for the Dinsdale Family Learning Commons (Dinsdale) are planned for the summer term. On May 11-14, the print collection of 25,000 books will be returning to the lower level of Dinsdale. The returning collection is a core selection of materials that was determined through researcher usage and curriculum analysis to support East Campus programs and interests.

In addition, Dunkin Donuts has been selected as the café vendor to provide beverages and snacks to students and staff in Dinsdale.

Bryce Bares, owner of the Dunkin Donuts franchise located in the Adele Hall Learning Commons and soon to be in Dinsdale is excited about the future.

“We are honored and excited to be a part of the renovated Dinsdale Family Learning Commons and to continue our partnership with the University Libraries,” said Bares, “We look forward to providing great tasting coffee and donuts to the students, faculty, and visitors on East Campus.”

Construction will commence this summer with the opening of the Dunkin Donuts anticipated for Fall semester of 2021.
