**Sent on Behalf of the UBC Psychiatry Space Allocation Committee**
Dear Staff, Faculty and Learners in Detwiller Pavilion,
This summer, the Department plans to make upgrades to Room 2N A/B on the 2nd floor of Detwiller Pavilion in order to enhance its functionality. The upgrades will include a new touch-down lounge for Department members to use as an informal space to sit and gather on a casual basis. As well, the other half of Room 2N A/B will be repurposed into a shared work area furnished with nine workstations, which will replace the large wooden meeting tables. This project is expected to be completed by the end of July.
In anticipation of this project, please note the following:
- FREE FURNITURE: If any faculty are interested in taking any of the wooden tables or chairs currently in use in 2 A/B for use in their own labs/offices, please let Margaret (margaret.koshi@ubc.ca) know by June 30, 2025. Otherwise, they will be disposed of on July 10.
- ACCESS UNTIL JUNE 30: Room 2N/AB will no longer be accessible as a formal conference room as of July 1, 2025. If you require a conference space to accommodate 10+ people, please visit our Space and Conference Facilities page and book an appropriate space per instructions: https://psychiatry.ubc.ca/resources-for-department-members/spaces-and-conference-facilities/.
- ACCESS AFTER JULY 31: The NEW 2N A/B Lounge and Shared Workspaces do not need to be booked for general use, however, if you would like to reserve this space for private use, please complete the Detwiller Room Booking Request Form on our Space webpage to make the booking.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Dr. Frangou (sophia.frangou@ubc.ca).
Sincerely,
UBC Psychiatry Space Allocation Committee
