Project Description
This project is for the construction of a multi-phase storage facility primarily for book storage and a small administrative support area. The initial phase will be for approximately 10,000 gsf to support one million volumes of books; future phases will complete the build-out and total seven million volumes of book storage. (The site is University owned and in Champaign, Illinois.)
A program analysis and preliminary project design has been completed by an architectural firm and that preliminary program and design will form the basis of the project to be undertaken. Accordingly, the University desires to employ an architectural/engineering firm for the professional services from design through construction for this project. Funding for the project will be campus funds managed by the Office for Project Planning and Facility Management.
