Hafer Associates designed this 155,000 s.f. university library in collaboration with Woollen Molzan Partners. This is the tallest building on campus, visible from all directions. As the most widely used facility and the academic center of the university, it was important to design the facility to incorporate the latest educational technologies and also to provide the infrastructure to accommodate future technologies as they emerge. Most importantly, this is a building the students use often, so it was essential that the facility catered to this social need, and offered meeting places and a variety of group study areas.
