MAGIC is delighted to announce that the former Map Library Reading Room space, now known as the MAGIC GeoCommons, will receive new furniture and equipment. The upgrading of this space will involve the replacement of the current reading room tables and chairs with new, flexible furniture which will be movable and accommodate a wider range of users. The following digram highlights the configuration for this space with Phase 1.2 and Phase 1.3 scheduled to be completed at the end of Fall Semester 2010.

Enhancements for this space will include:
- 30 chairs with wheels to enable collaboration
- 5 tables on wheels which can be reconfigured to accommodate large and small groups
- 1 collaborative table with 46" LCD screen with laptop connectivity
- Addition of laptop connectivity to the existing GeoCommons collaborative table
We want to thank the University of Connecticut Libraries Planning Team for funding the MAGIC GeoCommons space enhancement! Thank you!
