George R. White Library & Learning Center
The hub for both the campus and the neighborhood, the George R. White Library & Learning Center will dramatically enhance academic resources for students and faculty and increase Concordia's ability to serve the community. The new building combines traditional library spaces, state-of-the-art technology, classrooms, community resources, a coffee shop, and important centers of learning. It increases learning space by 75 percent, provides additional computer and reference resources, increases the number of rooms available for group meetings, and more.
