These studies, which were conducted up until the last months before thebuilding opened in January 2013, helped to answer planning questions, as well as build supportand awareness of the library among faculty and students.1 After the building opened, it quicklybecame apparent that assessment of the effectiveness of the new spaces and the service modelwas needed and as a result, more studies were initiated. The resulting body of five years ofresearch provides many practical insights into the needs and preferences of Hunt Library users.The Hunt Library is situated on
