The Redeemer College Library opened alongside the university in 1986 but was quickly outgrown with the rising number of students and their academic needs. As a part of Redeemer's Growing With Integrity Campaign, the South Wing expansion of the school included the renovation and expansion of the library, to be called Peter Turkstra Library dedicated to Peter Turkstra (1934-2000), founder of Turkstra Lumber and life-long supporter of Christian education. The construction was completed in the Fall of 2005 and opened with brand new facilities including computer labs, study rooms, a lounge area, and quiet study pods.
