01Description
The Union Street East library houses The Robertson Library's major collections and is used mostly by staff and students from the University of Otago College of Education (formerly the Dunedin Teachers' College) and Otago Polytechnic. The library was inherited by the University of Otago when The University of Otago's Faculty of Education merged with the Dunedin College of Education in 2007. It underwent a $10 million refurbishment between January and September 2010, with the help of a $6.25 million government grant.
