High Temperatures in the Wartenweiler Library

Library Management acknowledges the concerns raised by users regarding the uncomfortable temperatures in the Wartenweiler Library. The University’s Facilities Department is prioritizing the implementation of an interim measure to minimize the discomfort currently being experienced during this hot summer season as well as a long lasting solution that will prevent the recurrence of the seasonal temperature fluctuations in Wartenweiler Library. Please bear with us as we actively follow up on ensuring that you study in a conducive and comfortable Library environment.
