UBC Okanagan Library

The UBC Okanagan Library is located in Kelowna, within the university campus. The library is a nexus of scholarly engagement for students, faculty, staff and visitors at the UBC Okanagan campus. The mission of library is to create an inclusive culture where all members of the UBCO community and beyond feel welcome to pursue their greatest potential through the use of our spaces, collections, and services.

History
The UBC Okanagan library was established in 1989, and have been expanded in 2014 when students passed a referendum to partner with UBC to fund an expansion of the library.

Expansion
Through a joint federal-provincial and university investments, 40 million was funded for the UBC Okanagan campus infrastructure. Most of the funding, $35 million, including a major investment by students, went towards the Teaching and Learning Centre.
