Irving K. Barber Learning Centre 10th Anniversary Exhibitions

Ten years ago, the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre (IKBLC) celebrated its grand opening on UBC’s Vancouver campus. As a technology-forward place of learning, the four-story building is a focal point of education for students and researchers and has become an innovative fixture on campus.

In celebration of this 10-year milestone, UBC Library is installing two temporary exhibitions on Levels 1 and 2 of IKBLC.

The Irving K. Barber Learning Centre 10th Anniversary exhibitions are on display from August 27 through October 30, 2018.
