Academic Success Center at D.H. Hill Library

The D.H. Hill Library renovation at NC State University is more than just a facelift—it's a transformative journey centered on student success and innovation. By repurposing former bookstacks into vibrant spaces, the library now serves as a dynamic hub for learning, research, and collaboration. The addition of the Academic Success Center (ASC) brings academic support, technology-rich environments, mentorship, and career resources under one roof, providing students with comprehensive support for their educational journey. The renovation also introduces cutting-edge technology and collaboration spaces, including the Innovation Studio, Visualization Studio, and Data Experience Lab, where students can explore emerging technologies and engage in hands-on learning experiences. With its welcoming design and integration of state-of-the-art resources, the D.H. Hill Library stands as a beacon of student empowerment and academic excellence, inspiring the next generation of innovators and leaders.
