I'm delighted this new facility will be available to area students and the community at-large. A web site with information links for local communities and businesses will facilitate access to planning and community development information. With the addition of this new Adirondack Information Resource Center, Governor Pataki has continued to demonstrate his support and commitment to local governments of the Adirondacks. The Adirondack Information Resource Center will replace the current library and will include on-line databases, teleconferencing facilities, distance learning technologies, and satellite downlink capabilities as well as traditional book holdings and archives. Not only will this super library enhance the quality of the College's academic programming, but it will provide a needed resource to all residents, businesses, and organizations in the Park.
Construction is set to begin next summer.
