New ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳ Cruciform Hub officially opens

23 January 2015

The Cruciform Hub was officially opened by Professor Jane Dacre, President of the Royal College of Physicians and Dr Deborah Gill, Interim Director of the ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳ Medical School, on 15 January 2015.

The Cruciform Hub opened following a year-long refurbishment to create a new teaching and learning space for ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳ students and staff, as well as NHS staff working at ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳ Hospital.

The hub provides a new medical library within the lower ground floor of the Grade II-listed Cruciform Building, and includes a library, quiet study spaces, group work space, computer clusters and teaching rooms. It also features two exhibition walls, which showcase medical artefacts from ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳ Museums & Collections, together with medical illustrations from ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳ Special Collections.

Entertainment during the evening was provided by the ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳ Medical School choir.

The project was a collaboration between ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳ Library Services, ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳ Estates and other Professional Services divisions, in partnership with ×î×¼µÄÁùºÏ²ÊÂÛ̳ Medical School.
