- Self-contained study rooms designed to seat groups of six to eight students, surrounding a central open “collaboratory†furnished with chairs and sofas
- Renewal of Scholars’ Hall as a place for quiet contemplation and reflective learning, with the room featuring comfortable seating and a fireplace with the original mantel from the chief librarian’s 1910 office.
- A tri-level Mezzanine Reading Room highlighting the original 1892 architecture and distinguished by a central floating glass walkway.
- Enclosure of the 1910 courtyard to improve connections between the main floor of the Heritage Building and the group of study rooms on the lower level.
- Reconfiguration of the Education Commons and the Wallace Room, with ergonomic furniture and the addition of 30 additional convenient, comfortable workstations equipped with wide screens.
