BCIT Burnaby Library

Good place to study.

In many ways its digital resources could use updating. But there are quiet places to study and focus. Also their Lost & Found should somehow coordinate with the campus Lost & Found

When I first started studying at BCIT, I thought this library is going to be a great place to study and do my researches. However, after spending 2 years at BCIT, I'm extremely disappointed by this library and my reasons are:-The hours are not planned properly and the library closes at 5 on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.-It is closed during holidays and summer.-Some days it is closed for surprise maintenance, staff meetings, or even for no reason.-A few of the front staff seem like they've had enough of the students and do not treat us well.-There aren't enough plugs or charging station near the tables to keep our laptops alive.-The library is getting smaller and more cramped as the Burnaby campus is getting bigger each year.-There are not enough BCIT computers in the library and the ones that are there are extremely worn and do not function properly. I suggest my fellow students to know how to use the on-screen keyboard when the physical keyboard suddenly stops working.

A very good and modern library. Excellent staff. In an academic setting. The library is on two floors, the first floor is more crowded due to group study, but if someone wants to be more careful and focused, you should go to the third floor in silence. The only problem with this place is the parking space.

Walked the campus with my best friend.

Not really a library. More like a cafeteria. Very loud, people eat full lunches here. It’s a social area. There are quiet study spaces, but there are no computers there.
