The renovated Alderman Library at the University of Virginia will be a showplace designed for sustainability.
The library renovations include a new north entrance facing University Avenue, featuring a terrace and a set of doors leading into a spacious second-floor lobby, replacing a 1960s-era addition. The design will bring more natural light into the building and add exterior and interior connections between Alderman and Clemons libraries.
The project, designed by HBRA Architects, will also include upgrades of safety features and mechanical elements. The renovation began in 2020 and is expected to be completed late this year.
