In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic had a major impact on institutions, including universities as instruction rapidly shifted to remote methods. The shift represented a fundamental change from both a teaching and student perspective. In this article, the head of a self-access center at a university in Japan reflects on the drastic drop in student users of the center after instruction transitioned back to face-to-face. As a result, the researcher sought to illuminate the reasons behind this change by conducting a survey and one-on-one interviews with student users. The results will hopefully inform other self-access practitioners on how self-access centers might evolve to meet student expectations for their use in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.
