Libraries
At the center of every great university is its library—a place where ideas, opinions, and, well, books, can be exchanged freely. NSU is home to the largest library building in the state of Florida.
Stunningly modern and towering a full five stories, the 325,000-square-foot Alvin Sherman Library, Research, and Information Technology Center offers full collections of research materials, specialized databases, popular fiction and nonfiction books, magazines and journals, CDs, and DVDs.
You’ll also find comfortable reading areas, 27 private study rooms, an exhibition gallery, a one-of-a-kind creation by famed glass artist Dale Chihuly, a friendly cafe, and the 500-seat Rose and Alfred Miniaci Performing Arts Center. And if you are an NSU student, you will have the benefit of total wireless access throughout the building.
It may be the first time in your life you’ve actually looked forward to hanging out in the library.
