    Designing Specialized Spaces in Libraries
    (2012-05-17) Vaughan, Jim
    Jim Vaughan will discuss the renovation of the Special Collections Research Center’s public spaces, a project undertaken thanks to the economic and logistical benefits of synchronizing the renovation with the construction of the Joe and Rika Mansueto Library. The new, state-of-the-art Exhibition Gallery and renovated research and teaching spaces are located on the pathway between the Joseph Regenstein Library and the Joe and Rika Mansueto Library, thus creating greater visibility for the Special Collections Research Center. The new and renovated spaces provide flexible, technology-equipped facilities for the presentation, interpretation, and consultation of primary sources by individuals, groups, and classes.

    Joe and Rika Mansueto Library: A Year Later – Lessons Learned
    (2012-05-17) Vaughan, Jim
    Jim Vaughan will describe the vision behind the Helmut Jahn-designed Joe and Rika Mansueto Library and then talk about what we have learned since the opening of the facility on May 16, 2011. In addition to the beauty and functionality of Mansueto, its genius lies in its enabling features. He will highlight much that Mansueto has made (and is making) possible throughout the Library system.
