We renovated in 2006\u2014so we renovated for today\u2019s needs for connectible study space,\u201d Kaylor said. \u201cWe took advantage of that opportunity.\u201d<br \/>\nHe said the cubicle-stations were made on the loggia floor (student marketplace level) after their location in the computer lab in Building 13 closed down for the Unmanned Aerial Systems Program.<br \/>\n\u201cThe furniture was available to us, so we decided to jump ahead and fill a demand \u2013 we think we have a demand,\u201d Kaylor said.<br \/>\nWith the new cubicle stations, students will have more opportunities to use the computers in the library and utilize the luxury of space. The new stations allow students to face the wall so all they have to do is pull up a chair and sit down.<br \/>\nKaylor said there is still plenty of breathing room between stations, so students can expect a peaceful atmosphere for studying. According to Kaylor, this design was also resourcefully built for students and staff who require wheelchairs or cannot easily move around the zig-zag design the level below the loggia offers.<br \/>\nAlong with the new cubicle renovations, there will also be a sign-in station made on the loggia level, as well, so that students will be able to access their own computers.<br \/>\nStudents will also be accessing the same model of computers they\u2019ve been familiar with using in the stations below. Students with laptops are also encouraged in using this extra study space.<br \/>\nKaylor said he is excited to see how well this new renovation works.<br \/>\n\u201cI\u2019m very pleased. We had requests, over time, for more [computer stations]. I\u2019m really excited for the fall semester and really seeing it get put to work\u2014we\u2019ll get to see how students stick to it. The initial comments we\u2019ve heard have all been positive,\u201d Kaylor said.<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Buerkle<br \/>\n<em>Reporter<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sinclair students now have to access new to computer stations in the Sinclair Library, according to Douglas Kaylor, library director.
