Renderings of Temple’s New Library Released

Temple University's hotly anticipated new library is still two years away from completion, but renderings released Tuesday from the architecture firm leading the project are whetting appetites among many alumni and students. Snøhetta, the architecture firm building the library at 13th Street and Pollet Walk, called the design a "vibrant center for both students and the surrounding community. "The Temple University library will provide a new social and academic heart for the campus of 37,800 students," according to a statement on the firm's website. "A variety of study spaces, resource centers, sophisticated information technology, public spaces and event hall will be housed under one roof."
