The newest building on Chaffey College’s Rancho Cucamonga campus.
The Library Learning Commons came with a $75 million pricetag that was covered by Measure P, a bond measure approved by voters in 2018, a college news release states.
True to its name, the 76,000-square-foot facility includes a library — plus classrooms and study spaces.
On Thursday, Feb. 12, a grand opening ceremony complete with speeches and tours, marked the building’s opening.
