by John McGinty, Director
Director’s Report On
Building Progress
The Library building project continues to move
forward as the Hillier Group and the Probst-Mason architects finish
up the programming for all the spaces in the addition and the
renovated building. The Whiting-Turner Contracting Company of
Baltimore has been hired to manage the construction process. The
schedule holds for the Library to start construction in the summer
of 2005.
One of the key elements determining the success
of the building project will be the comfort and utility of the
new furniture in the public spaces where students and faculty
will work on research, relax reading, view and listen to media.
In order to gauge the comfort and adaptability of different furniture
designs and styles, the library will display various samples of
chairs, which have the potential for being purchased for the new
building. The library administration welcomes feedback from students
and faculty input on the comfort, utility and style of these different
pieces of furniture. The chairs will be available for testing
and a sheet for your comments near the new book shelf, behind
the attendant’s desk as you enter the library.
The updated library plans will be available
for your perusal in the same area.
