Our libraries are open for business and while we are not in a post COVID world yet we are starting to reinvent ourselves in response to the pandemic. Change is everywhere, much of it out of our control. Reinvention, or producing something new or different from something that exists, can help us to emerge stronger from a crisis. We discuss some of the changes and challenges Monash Library staff and users experienced while working through the pandemic, particularly during the lockdown restrictions. We look at how our library is moving forward to reinvent itself, acknowledging that while some aspects of university life have returned to how they were, others have not.
