The University has contracted with the architectural firm Shepley Bulfinch Richardson and Abbott (SBRA) of Boston to prepare a master building plan for E.S. Bird Library, the Science and Technology Library and the Belfer Audio Archive. To make sure that these plans reflect the needs and preferences of library users, Carol Wedge and Janette Blackburn of SBRA, on behalf of the library and the Office of Design and Construction, will conduct the following sessions to gather input from faculty and students:

  • Faculty: March 28, 3:30 – 4:30 p.m.
  • Undergraduate students: March 28, 4:30 – 5:30 p.m.
  • Graduate students: March 29, 2:30 – 3:30 p.m.

Those who plan to participate in a focus group are asked to RSVP to Jackie Allred (443-2573;jallred@syr.edu). All sessions will be held in the Peter Graham Scholarly Commons, first floor, E.S. Bird Library. Pizza and beverages will be provided after each focus group.
