The Emily Carr University of Art + Design Library provides access to a unique collection of diverse resources that support curricular and research activities across the University.

The kiosk will be located in the Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Gateway technology demonstration and exhibit centre of the NRC-IFCI’s LEED Gold certified building at the University of British Columbia.
