Yavapai College has begun construction of a new, state-of-the-art Center for Learning and Innovation on its Verde Valley Campus in Clarkdale. The new construction is part of the College’s facilities master plan that has received county-wide input.
The new building will consist of renovating the campus’s current library, providing a 21st-century modern learning environment for students and the community.
The Center for Learning and Innovation will feature modern digital technology used at many higher education institutions across the country, which will enhance the student experience with more content at the tip of their fingers. It will also feature modern learning areas, study rooms, student learning support services, and resource departments like the College’s Learning Center.
The building renovation is estimated to be completed by August 2024.
Yavapai College is donating its current stacks of books and resources at the Verde Valley Campus Library. As of today, approximately 50% of these physical resources have found a new home with faculty, employees, Yavapai Library Network (YLN), and community members. The College has reached out to other charity and public organizations as well for donations. The older material that is not taken will be recycled and the rest put in storage as renovation for the Center for Learning and Innovation begins.
