Moffitt Library
The University Library began re-envisioning Moffitt Library with the renovation of Floors 4 and 5 in 2016, transforming them into a flexible, 24-hour environment for individual and group study. The renovated floors provide a variety of spaces including open casual seating, meeting rooms for brainstorming and group projects, and nooks and carrels for quiet study. Updates also included improvements to critical building systems, life-safety features, and have created a foundation for further renovations of the library.
Moffitt Library also features the Free Speech Movement Café, located at the Library's south entrance on Floor 3, in honor of American activist Mario Savio, who played a key role in the Free Speech Movement. In front of the Free Speech Movement Café is the Newspaper Display Wall, where visitors can read the daily front page of various international newspapers.
