Construction To
Add 2600 Square
Feet Of Space
By CHARLES WOLFE
For several months there have
been rumors circulating as to
what is going to be done con
cerning the enlarging and re
modeling of C. L. Hardy Library.
In an attempt to find out some
facts and in order that the stu
dent body might be informed
as to what is being planned the
COLLEGIATE recently interview
ed the Librarian, Mr. Coefield.
Mr. Coefield pointed out that in
1964 ACC received two Founda
tion G-rants totaling $50,000 to
be used for the purpose of re
modeling and enlarging the pres
ent library facilities. Plans for
the construction are now being
drawn up by the architect, At
wood Skinner, and it is hoped
construction will begin by Christ
mas. The construction period
would ibe expected to last until
after the Spring term of school
has ended. This construction is
expected to add 2,200 square feet
of floor space to the library, and
another 400 square feet wiU (be
added to this with the conversion
of what was previously office
space for the Physical Education
Department into library space.
Coefidd added that the con
struction would consist of en-
terior changes with an additional
floor being added to the present
reading room and the fal^ ceil
ing in the lobby being replaced
by a floor. Coefield also stated
that at one time consideration
had been given to converting the
attic to library use. “There is a
great deal of ' unused space
there,” said Coefield, “but it
was decided there were not
enought funds avilable to carry
out the project.”
When the construction is finish
ed the reference collection wUI
remain where it is. There will be
a reference librarian and the
room wiU be broken up into al
coves. There will also be steps
in the reference room lead'ing to
the second level.
The new area on the second
floor will contain all bound pe
riodicals, plus current issues of
magazines. The area above the
present reading room will not be
a reading room as such, rather
there wUl be free standing
shelves containing books in the
center of the room with ap-
proximaely 50 study carols placed
around the walls. The basement
area that is being converted to
library use will consist of work
rooms for the library staff and
storage space for seldom used
books.
