Lessons Learned

Having furnished a space in another building on the University of Sheffield campus, CILASS were in the enviable position of being able to test run their ideas to see how successful they were before rolling them out on a larger scale in the Information Commons. This type of experience has proved invaluable to the CILASS team and helped to make the transition into the new building much easier.
