Design - D.H. Hill, Jr. Library Comprehensive Study

The comprehensive study will derive the vision, space principles, and program requirements/adjacencies (including dining facilities) in the D.H. Hill, Jr. Library for long-range planning to align with the Libraries strategic goals. This effort will also consider library facility trends. The facility totals 383,709 GSF and comprises four separate, but connected, buildings: 1. East Wing, built in 1953, with 103,744 GSF 2. West (Erdahl-Cloyd) Wing, built in 1954, with 59,783 GSF 3. North (Old) Bookstack Tower, built in 1972, with 109,169 GSF, and 4. South (New) Bookstack Tower, built in 1990, with 111,013 GSF To adequately meet programmatic requirements, the study must address current deficiencies and future needs for building systems/infrastructure, service access and loading areas, building code, fire protection/life safety, and general safety issues. The deliverables will include a final report with a proposed high-level program and blocking and stacking diagrams plus a prioritized list of future projects, with preliminary cost estimates, that align with the determined vision, space principles, and strategic goals.
