Council Meets at New Snow College Library

Members of the Utah Academic Library Consortium met in the new Karen H. Huntsman Library at Snow College on October 29, 2010. Jon Ostler, Snow College Library Director, gave the higher education library directors a tour of the 72,000-square-foot facility, complete with study rooms, cafe, an outside terrace and two high-tech auditoriums. Dixie State College is the next in line for a new library, which will be part of the new Holland Centennial Commons, also home of other student services, including registration, financial aid, advising and counseling, among other resources.
