Student Resource Center / Library Renovation
Delta College is flexible and responsive to our community's needs, while educating students in the local area. This project will renovate Delta College’s Library, turning it into a focal point of campus by serving as the new Resource Center/Library.
Delta College just completed a new Facilities Master Plan, with a focus on how best to utilize our educational spaces to increase student retention and completion outcomes, which is the focus of our 4-year strategic plan. The work examined the allocation of space across campus and sought opportunities to create more efficient uses of rooms, in order to support today’s strategic goals.
The proposed Resource Center/Library will centralize essential services such as tutoring, mental health counseling, basic needs support (food pantry, housing assistance), and technological resources in a single, accessible location, thus reducing the impact of barriers that our students face. It will serve as a hub for both physical and digital student engagement, offering flexible learning spaces, enhanced digital tools, and proactive outreach to meet the diverse needs of our students. The area being proposed for renovation is approximately 46,300 square feet, located on the south side of our main campus building, in Bay County, but serving students from Bay, Midland and Saginaw counties.
