Ground is supposed to be broken this June and the whole thing is supposed to be finished by the fall of 2001. One obvious and huge challenge for anyone who is expanding and renovating, rather than building a new building on another site, is how and where to operate during construction. We have a phased in plan that allows for a sizable on site collection during the whole time, but we still had to send over 100,000 vols. With completion in September 2000, the project is both addition and radically new building inside and out. All new windows, new brick even on the remaining north face, a tower, a new entrance, new roofing with numerous gables, and a third floor along the eastern side have transformed the Library and made it the dominant campus building.
