YEAR

2013

"The Carney Library is the centerpiece of one of the most significant experiments in campus planning and Brutalism. Architect Paul Rudolph designed the entire University of Massachusetts Dartmouth between 1962-1974.

Since then, the University's educational paradigms evolved beyond the library's ability to support them. It was completely re-planned and expanded with the goal to "transform [it] into a modern hub of knowledge creation, dissemination, and interaction envisioning" an "intellectual & scholarly hub."

Staff agree the building now allows them to "grow and change as teaching and learning styles evolve". Three times as many visitors use the library now, exceeding expectations."
