As the Fall 2008 semester is beginning to unfold, the staff of Babson Library is pleased and excited to welcome both our incoming class of First Year students, as well as, all of our returning students and faculty.
New offices relocated in Babson Library.
During the summer, several offices and their staff were relocated in Babson Library due to displacement caused by demolition / construction at the site of their former buildings.
The Library was pleased to host a small reception to welcome the staff and students of these offices as new additions to the building.
The Student Volunteers and the AmeriCorps’ offices are now located on the first floor of the Library to the immediate left as you enter the building.
The Student Government Association/SGA is located on the second floor of the Library on the parking lot side of the building.

The search for a permanent Educational Technologist is currently underway.
