The De Chastelain library is located in the T.K. Whitaker Building on the DkIT campus. Designed by Scott Tallon Walker, it was opened in August 2001. The Library holds thousands of books and journals while curating a virtual collection of e-books and journal articles. You can also enjoy an art collection which includes work by Katie Holten, Michelle Rogers and David Farrell.
The library supports students by providing a green space in the heart of the DkIT campus. This space has been used by students not only as a quiet area for contemplation but also as a meeting place that fosters partnership, collaboration and a connection with nature. This green space is a more valuable resource for the DkIT community, providing a sanctuary for students to unwind, connect with nature, and learn about sustainability. By continuously improving and expanding this space, we aim to create a vibrant, inclusive, and environmentally conscious campus that benefits everyone.
