The Learning Commons was designed for students by students and faculty at ACU. The facility, housed on the main floor of ACU's Brown Library, provides a unique learning setting that incorporates all aspects of the research process. The space includes a copy center, technology help desk, Writing Center, Speech Center, Starbucks coffee shop, and the library's Circulation and Research Desks. Opening in April of 2006, the Learning Commons has become a popular place for students and faculty to have informal meetings with each other and a place to meet for coffee and learning in a comfortable atmosphere.
