About this location
The Watson Hall LINQ offers a learning space with 21 seats where students can study and work together in an inspiring library atmosphere, in a convenient location close to professors and teaching assistants, as well as residences and dining halls. This space was developed in accordance with the strategies outlined in the Library and Archives Master Plan (LAMP) to achieve a high level learning experience. This LINQ was made possible through the generous support of the Joseph S. Stauffer Foundation.
What is LINQ?
A Library Information Network at Queen’s (LINQ) is a node in the Queen’s University Library network. LINQs build upon our iconic library locations and offer an agile form of library infrastructure. These spaces look and feel like other library locations, with welcoming learning space open to all and they are virtually connected with a full range of library resources and services.
We hope to see LINQ spaces located in a variety of buildings across campus, enhancing the learning fabric of the campus. Those interested in exploring the possibility of providing a LINQ in their space are invited to get in touch with the Office of the Vice-Provost and University Librarian.
