NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan
Executive Summary
Simply put, the NCSU Libraries strive to create a library system that will support the academic goals of the University. The basis of this goal is: • • •
Advanced application of digital information technology and access to electronic materials, Individual and collective study spaces that support both quiet, contemplative study and collaborative interaction, Access to all of the required print materials
As a first-class science, engineering and technology institution, NCSU requires a first-class research library system. We define first class as: • A library that houses a fully accredited collection, in all relevant formats, for use by the faculty, staff and students; • A physical place that permits easy access to, and use of, the collection; • An institution that provides unequaled library services to the University community—through collection development and management, assistance and support; • A physical and cultural icon that symbolically represents the qualities of the University—now and in the future.
The current Library has: • Facilities that are severely physically undersized; • Space which is in poor physical condition with antiquated building systems and poor space utilization; • Space that suffers from over-crowding; • Multiple additions that have been done without the benefit of a comprehensive Master Plan that is integrated with the plan growth of the University • Space utilization that has developed incrementally over the years in response to collection growth and population served—within the physical restraints of the existing facilities;
Today, this has resulted in: • Inefficient departmental relationships; • Poor, inadequate and, in some cases, unsafe seating; • Insufficient space for a collection growing to conform to accreditation requirements; • Illogical and inefficient organization of the departments; • Poorly located and undersized points-of-service for patrons; • Recognized library space planning standards are not being met.

These shortcomings: •
Create a visible negative affect on student and faculty use of Library facilities—including lack of space to work as individuals and in collaborative teams, over crowding, illogical organization of materials and counter-intuitive placement of departments; • Limit the ability of faculty and staff to effectively utilize Library facilities in support of academic programs; • Add to the inability for the University attract and retain top Library professionals; and, • Place an immediate requirement on the University to renovate the existing D.H. Hill library to rectify these immediate shortcomings. This renovation is recommended in order to bring the building up to a minimum standard before additional work, such as an addition, is done. Unlike the past, this renovation will be done in the context of a Master Plan.
The Master Plan: • Assesses and identifies the current state of the NC State University Library system—including the utilization of its facilities, collections, places for study and collaboration, and staff; • Develops criteria to guide development of the system over the next twenty years; • Develops a strategy for use of funding allocated in the NC State 10 Year Capital Plan; and • Develops recommendations for future funding of the Library system.
Accepting the Recommendations of the Master Plan will: • Bring the NC State University Library system into conformance with the University of North Carolina System and American Library Association standards; • Provide students, faculty and staff with the materials and facilities needed to support and promote academic and research achievement; • Demonstrate the University’s commitment to address SACS facilities-related accreditation issues; • Support the information needs of the University as it continues to increase its expansion through qualitative physical and academic improvements; • Support expansion of the University into Centennial Campus.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan
What University factors shaped this Master Plan? • The changing demographics of the University population; • Rapid evolution of technology; • Changing nature of content creation, acquisition and delivery; • The desire to maintain the NCSU Libraries leadership in innovative and progressive delivery methods; • The emergence of the Library as an important intellectual and social center where students, faculty, staff and partners gather to interact as well as for individual study; • The dissolution of the boundary between intellectual and social interaction; • The evolving and complex needs for research and study; • Analyzing activities is the basis for programming the physical form; • Functionality includes a level of connectivity for each group of activities—whether it be reader seats, browsing the collection or working in a collaborative setting; • The increasing need for traditional holdings and services and to be, concurrently, on the leading edge of electronic material delivery.
What Universal factors shaped this Master Plan? • Libraries are places where social interactions take place in an information-rich environment; • Libraries are places where information is stored in an logical and easily accessible form; • Functions will take place in physical space and a virtual environment. No one can be certain which of these formats will dominate—or what the balance will be; • There are three primary library models for Universities: Centralized Building Model—where information is stored in a central location, printed materials coexist with digital information and there is physical one-onone interaction between library staff and patrons. Distributed Building Model—where information resides at the user’s location, printed collections are in a storage facility, and there is mediated interaction between the library staff and patrons. Hybrid Building Model—where information resides both at user’s location and at a central location, the centralized library facility is extended through a virtual network and interaction between library staff

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan
and patrons is determined by its content. This is the proposed model for the NCSU Library System. •
The evolutionary disparity between information technology and building design is leading to new, hybrid forms of libraries, containing both physical and information infrastructures. Successful planning for both physical and information infrastructures must take into account the increasingly complex interaction between these physical and virtual environments—and the emerging importance of the library as a center of social life for students.
The planning team was guided by: •
The duality of the library service goals: 1) Critical, ongoing expansion of the print and digital collection; 2) Related expansion of collaborative workspace with a more relevant and exciting electronic work environments.
•
The need for expansion of library services to the Centennial Campus. This will 1) Necessitate division of the print collection 2) Introduce a certain level of redundancy—since convenience and timely availability of core reference materials and study spaces is an essential requirement.
Generally, we recommend that NCSU: • • • •
Maintain its traditional emphasis on quality teaching, people and service; Enhance its physical presence to deal with serious shortcomings; Endorse growth and change to support continued enrichment of the University and its people; and Provide library facilities that function as a nexus for research, learning, and community.
M S & R Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle JUNE 2002
v
NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan
Specifically, we recommend that NCSU: The library system will be renovated and expanded to: •
House collections to support academics at the University as defined by recognized standards and in consideration of historic material acquisition statistics. This will result in a library system in twenty years housing 3.3 million monographs and 3.7 million 1 total Bound Volume Equivalents (BVE) , a 58% growth in print collections over the next twenty years;
•
Support the relocation of volumes to the satellite shelving facility—resulting in a temporary increase in the number of study spaces. As the print collections grow to meet accreditation requirements, these seats will be displaced—to be supplemented as new construction and renovation occurs;
•
Provide individual and collaborative seating for 7,269—for students, faculty, staff and partners. This is an increase of 5,879 over the current total of 1,490. This represents approximately five and a half times the number of study seats currently available in the Hill and Branch Libraries—and is the minimum for accreditation;
•
Provide efficient, flexible staff space. Current University space standards must be tested against the needs of the Library staff to insure that space provided for the staff is efficient and flexible. Analysis of the Library staff space in relation to University standards should be an integral part of the initial programming for the Phase I project.
•
Provide efficient, flexible user space that will provide for true collaboration and for access to the utilization of the very newest information technologies not yet ubiquitous on campus.
•
Consist of approximately 893,250 square feet of total space in the Hill, Centennial Campus and Branch facilities. This represents a 459,250 square foot increase over the Libraries' current 434,000 square feet—and is located in: • D. H. Hill Library—with 413,000 square feet; • Centennial Campus—with 405,000 square feet; and • Branch facilities and off-site storage for the remainder of 75,250 square feet.
These enhancements will eliminate current space and facility deficits and will satisfy Library facility needs for the next twenty years.
1 A "volume" is defined as a physical unit of work which has been printed or otherwise reproduced, typewritten, or handwritten, contained in one binding or portfolio, hardbound or paperbound, which has been cataloged, classified, or otherwise prepared for use.

2 THE PLANNING PROCESS
The planning process is based on a series of Visioning sessions in conjunction with Assessment of current building and operational conditions. From the Visioning and Assessment work evolved a long term vision for the future of the University Library system, upon which both long and short term capital proposals are founded. The primary goal of this vision for the future of the Library system is to support the growth and continued academic excellence of NC State University.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan THE PLANNING PROCESS
APPROACH Overview of the process used to develop this Master Plan.
The multiple goals of this study require a planning approach that looks holistically into the future with the University to define the aspirations and vision of the Library system. This vision informs the strategic thinking necessary to substantively identify long term needs and solutions and effectively solve specific short term needs with allocated Phase I funds, and enhance the library system in its support of the mission of NC State University - to serve its students and the people of North Carolina as a Research I, land-grant university. There were two primary phases in the process: The first phase involved information gathering. This included visioning workshops and detailed discussions with multiple planning committees, library staff and students. The goals of the visioning sessions were: •
To listen and to learn from representative constituencies on the NC State University campus.
•
To foster an atmosphere of candid and open dialogue that will benefit the design team's understanding of the current and future role of the library as it seeks to better serve the alumni, staff, faculty and students.
•
To jointly gather and explore new and innovative service possibilities that the library may want to pursue, as well as ideas and possibilities about library facilities.
The results of the visioning sessions are outlined later in this report in Section 4 - Program Development. In addition, an assessment of the existing D.H.Hill building was conducted and a detailed analysis made of the collection and its projected growth. The goals of this work were: •
Understand working and collection conditions and identify opportunities within the existing D.H.Hill facility for improvements to current services and user spaces.
•
Identify opportunities for expansion of the existing D.H.Hill facility in future phases of library expansion.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan
•
Determine the capacity of the existing building to support the growth of the collection prior to future library expansion.
•
Review existing plans for renovation of the East Wing of the existing Hill Library.
The results of the building and collection assessment are described in Section 3 - The Planning Context. The second phase used the findings of the first phase in generating collection, study and staff needs for the future. Space needs were discussed relative to University collections, staff and anticipated library use and levels of redundancy required between an expanded Hill facility and a future Centennial Campus library were developed. Priorities were developed. From this work emerged specific proposals shown in Sections 5 and 6 of this report. The results of the second phase of work follow in Section 5 Planning Diagrams and Section 6 - Scope of Work and Budget Projections.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan THE PLANNING PROCESS
ISSUES Primary goals of expanding the Library system.
Out of the planning process emerged a series of issues primary to the development of the library system. These issues grow out of existing shortcomings of the library facilities as well as visions for the future of the library. Issues are both facility related and general. Some of these issues are service related and therefore fall outside the scope of the recommendations of this report, except insofar as future development of the library facilities can support these expanded service concepts. •
The primary role of the NC State University Libraries is to support the growth and continued excellence of NC State University students and faculty.
•
The expanded library system facilities must be able to accommodate constantly expanding print collections as well as provide for ever increasing electronic access to library collections as well as non-University held collections and journals. Increased digitization of existing materials will also be a factor in storage of and access to library materials.
•
Staff spaces within the library facilities must be designed to accommodate appropriate numbers of staff in comfortable and flexible surroundings, and allow the staff to efficiently and effectively interact with co-workers and library patrons.
•
Study space, both for individuals and for groups, must be increased at the Hill Library and adequately provided at a new Centennial Campus facility. Increasingly, academic libraries are thriving by providing collaborative and gathering spaces traditionally housed in student unions.
•
Access to the libraries must be facilitated, especially at a new Centennial Campus facility. The University community will not use a library they can not conveniently get to, a problem at the current Hill library facility.
•
Aesthetics must be addressed at the Hill Library and in a future Centennial Campus facility. Place is important. The physical quality of the library(ies) is important not just in promoting use of the facility by the current University community, but also in attracting top students and scholars to the University. The library is the intellectual center of the University, and its appearance should state this fact clearly. Many of the participants in the visioning sessions made note
M S & R Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle JUNE 2002

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan of the tired condition of the Hill facility. In addition the building exteriors should be developed to mark the library facilities as significant campus buildings and to give indication to the significance of the library on campus and the activity within. Use of natural light must be maximized. •
Efficiency of the library facilities must be maximized. Efficiency relates to access to the library, access to materials and study spaces, and ease of the library staff in supporting the use of the library.
•
Wayfinding in the current Hill facility is difficult. Future reorganization of the Hill facility and design of a new Centennial Campus facility must organize the facilities in an intuitively clear manner, requiring minimal use of signage to direct users to their desired destinations within the facilities.
•
Mechanical and electrical systems in the facilities should be designed to provide comfortable spaces able to adapt to changing exterior conditions as well as to varied occupant loads within the spaces. Electrical systems should be designed to accommodate existing technology as well as support future developing methods of electronic material access and use.
•
Development of two large library facilities will require a certain amount of redundancy in library collections and study space within the two facilities. For instance, a basic reference collection will be required at each facility.
•
Movement of some library materials to off-site storage will begin soon, and the future of off-site storage must be considered in formulating future library needs.
•
Increased and new methods of patron service should be considered in developing library spaces. Additional patron assistance at the library entry, methods of delivering print materials to non-library locations across campus and expanded offering of electronic materials via the internet are examples of ways the library may facilitate use of library materials in the future.
•
Attitudes about food and beverage service within library facilities will need to be formalized as the facilities are developed.
•
Branch libraries will continue in their current state. Under University policy, no new branch library facilities are envisioned.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan
3 EXISTING Planning for the future of the NC State library system begins with an analysis of existing library conditions. Existing NC State library facilities include the D.H.Hill Library, the University's main library facility located on University Plaza (the Brickyard) on the north side of campus - and four branch libraries, located in other buildings throughout the University. There are also several related facilities, similar to the branch libraries that are not part of the library system. This initial analysis identifies the existing physical condition of the Hill facility, reports on existing collection and services of the library system, and sets a benchmark for development of goals for the future of the library system.

EXISTING CONDITIONS The Place of the Library in the University The current conditions of the Library system
The NC State University library system is a central component of the University's quest to achieve its Mission and Goals. The library occupies physical space on campus as well as electronic space throughout the campus and beyond. It is the intellectual center of campus, and is a critical symbol of the University's academic excellence. The D.H.Hill Library is located on the northern edge of University Plaza (the Brickyard). In addition to its place on campus as an academic symbol, it is one of the most heavily used buildings on campus, and serves also as a physical center of the North Campus Precinct. As such, the building should take its place on campus with distinctive location, aesthetics, usability and functionality. Currently, the building falls short of achieving these goals. The location of the Hill library is central, and the building anchors the University Plaza Neighborhood. It is located adjacent to a Wolfline bus stop and the site of a future people mover station. Major campus paths pass on either side of the facility. And to the north of the library is Hillsborough Street, a major east/west artery. The only significant drawback to the location of the Hill library, and one that was noted by many of the visioning session participants, is its limited access to parking. Aesthetically, the Hill Library embodies some of the ideals of the NC State University Physical Master Plan, but falls short relative to others. Having been added onto over the course of several decades, the resulting building lacks cohesiveness and a strong sense of identity or entry. The building is, in fact, comprised of four different structures, all designed and built in different times and in different styles. The entry from University Plaza could be developed with a much stronger connection, both symbolically and physically to the Plaza, and the building turns its back on Hillsborough Street, the north entry to the building having been closed. From the standpoint of usability and functionality, the Library falls short of goals and standards. In the following sections, analysis is presented of the current physical use of the building as well as the collections housed therein. Wayfinding in the building is difficult, and the layout of the building lacks an intuitive and cohesive flow. This is the result of years of expansion of library collections and services with little or no related increase or improvements to its physical space.
M S & R Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle JUNE 2002

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan
Future development of the Hill Library, as discussed in the next section, must be informed by the NC State University Physical Master Plan (2000). The library is noted for its high level of service despite current space constraints, and has been recognized for actually increasing student use when many academic libraries are experiencing declines in patronship. But, the library is unable to provide needed services, due to: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
limited collaborative study and presentation spaces limited and dysfunctional spaces for deliveries, TripSaver, ILL, Acquisitions, Special Collections, facilities and building systems limited patron access to individual study carrels space limitations in the heavily used information commons limited new media/technology piloting areas unworkable staging areas for stack reshelving inadequately sized Special Collection reading room inadequate exhibition spaces lack of quiet study areas lack of public function/event (and support) spaces inadequate and poorly located Photocopy Services space limited flexibility for integration of future technologies no videoconferencing space lack of a comprehensive service point and limited services at the building entrance lack of user/staff consultation rooms lack of a visitor registration area lack of adequate space for LRCDA functions, where faculty learn to integrate technology into their classroom teaching lack of public telephone facilities
These shortcomings must be addressed in order for the University to place continued reliance on its library system to attract top students and faculty and to support ongoing and future academic research and excellence.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan EXISTING
EXISTING UNIVERSITY LIBRARY FACILITIES / ONGOING PROJECTS
The NC State University Library System is comprised of the D.H.Hill Library and four branch libraries. Other similar facilities at NC State that are not part of the library system are also located across campus. D.H.HILL LIBRARY The Hill Library is comprised of four different structures: Erdahl-Cloyd Wing (1952) East Wing (1953) North Tower (1975) South Tower (1986) The facility houses material, services and staff on ten floors plus a basement and penthouse. It encompasses approximately 379,000 square feet, 2,080,000 monograph volumes (7,225,000 total items), and 1090 study seats. In the following pages are floor plans showing distribution of Collection, Service, Staff, Meeting/Classroom and Study spaces in the existing facility. In the appendix is a detailed breakdown of space use within the facility as well as charts illustrating distribution of space. The facility is constructed primarily of brick. Window systems are aging and in many areas in need of replacement, and are thermally not up to current standards. Interior finishes vary from newly renovated areas with good finishes to areas with very poor building finishes. Mechanical, electrical and lighting systems are for the most part aged and antiquated and in need of major repair or replacement, with the exception of a portion of the air delivery system. A walkthrough of the building was conducted with representatives of the University staff and a summary of the findings is included in the appendix. A summary of the problems associated with the current conditions in the Hill Library was generated: Problems associated with the physical condition of the facility: • •
Insufficient number of conferencing areas, especially those that facilitate use of technology. Lack of a freight elevator in either of the wings or central core stacks in which to move large furniture and other large pieces of equipment.
M S & R Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle JUNE 2002

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan
• • • •
•

•
•
No central core of elevators that serves all floors and wings, creating a wayfinding problem. Lack of adequate HVAC and fresh air return library-wide, and lack of capacity for future growth. Mail room air handling system is not isolated, but is integrated into the total library system. In light of 9/11, this could be a safety issue. The Libraries HVAC intake is located next to the exhaust from a campus dining facility, creating severe food odor problems and some level of airborne fats which can impact the long-term preservation of library materials. The wings have different floor-to-ceiling heights than the tower stacks, allowing only one connecting floor between all wings. This creates severe wayfinding problems and forces disabled patrons to make several elevator changes to move from one wing of the library to another. The tower stacks contain alcoves and cubbyholes that create security problems as places to hide when the Libraries closes and/or as safety problems for patrons in remote areas of the stacks. Lack of easy access to Libraries due to limited parking availability nearby, especially in the evening, creates usability and safety problems. Lack of easily accessed parking for disabled patrons, and lack of easy building access for disabled patrons on all sides of the Libraries limits use of the Libraries by these patrons.
Problems associated with the use or layout of the building: •
• • • •
• • •
Generally, a lack of proximity and contiguousness in D.H. Hill for services and service points, for related departments and for related programs. Throughout the Libraries, functions are incompatibly mixed. Insufficient collaborative study spaces. Loading dock is located under the Libraries, creating a security problem. Photocopy Services is located in a space too small for its function and workload with insufficient HVAC and mixed work/copier areas. Insufficient core service space for photocopying and printing in the stacks; need a core service area on every floor. the library to another. There is no line of sight from the entrance to any other service point or any usual destination, creating wayfinding problems, and problems with staff providing clear, adequate directions to a service point.

Floor numbering is confusing for patrons; they often think they are on the second floor when they climb the steps from the entrance to the circulation area. The major theatre is located in an isolated area of the west wing and is insufficiently insulated to prevent sound bleed-over into surrounding staff spaces. The heavily used Media Center and theatres are isolated in a remote area of the west wing in a hard-to-find location. Security in the Media Center is an issue because the media collection and viewing areas are in separate rooms, leading to theft of media such as videos and CDs, as well as the equipment on which they are played. Staffs are separated that would benefit from closer proximity and collaboration, such as Collection Management, Acquisitions and Cataloging, and Systems and DLI. Special Collections is “invisible” because it is hard-to-find, is in inappropriate space for proper climate control and storage, and has no space for a reading room or on-site processing of collections. The tower stacks have no clear line of sight, and are difficult in which to find materials. Lack of a central information point or service desk at the building entrance. Staff members showing patrons to a part of the reference area, such as the law collection, are out of sight of other patrons; patrons waiting at the desk cannot see them and walk off, thinking the desk is unattended. Patrons must walk back and forth between core service points, trying to find what they need. For example, if patrons need periodicals, they often need reference assistance first before they can actually locate the periodicals in the current periodicals area or the stacks. The distance between the reference staff office area and the reference desk creates a problem for retrieval of materials from the office area with which to assist patrons and for safety when retrieving materials as the staff office area is isolated, particularly in the evening/overnight hours. The current necessity of staffing two Circulation desks requires twice the staff and is not an efficient use of staff.

Control and support of the branch libraries lies largely with the associated Colleges and Departments. It is envisioned that the branch libraries will continue to function as they currently do, and creation of new branch facilities is not anticipated. Two other facilities exist in support of specific Colleges and Departments. These facilities are not part of the Library system. They are: • African American Cultural Center Reading Room Witherspoon Student Center • Learning Resources Library - College of Education (Poe Hall) Working collections are located throughout the University. They are small, specialized collections supporting students, faculty and staff of specific departments and are usually not available for public use. They are not a part of the Library system. Working collections are: • Animal Science - Polk Hall • Biological and Agricultural Engineering - Weaver Labs • Botany - Gardner Hall • Chemistry - Dabney Hall • Food Science - Schaub Food Science Building • Mathematics - Harrelson Hall • Music - Price Music Center • Nuclear Engineering - Burlington Building • Plant Pathology - Gardner Hall • Political Science and Public Administration - Caldwell • Sociology - 1911 Building.

Table 2 – Library Space Standard
In preparation for making projections about the future of the Library collections, an analysis was made of the current University holdings. Information from the Library staff was assembled and further developed by review of the collection. For the purpose of this discussion, the Collection referred to is that list of materials housed in the Hill Library. In summary, the D.H. Hill Library currently contains over 7,225,000 total items, about 2,080,000 of which are bound monographs. On the following page is a table illustrating the current collection (current collection analysis is denoted in red). There are currently 1,090 user seats in the Hill Library for study and collaboration. These seats include lounge seating, seating at individual study carrels, study table seating and seating in private study rooms and at public access computers. These seats are distributed throughout the library facility. The University of North Carolina system (UNC) and the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) have developed library space standards, by which College and University library facilities are developed and reviewed. A summary of these standards is shown in the sidebar on this page. Neither of these standards is in and of itself an accurate measure of the needs of the NC State Library system. Therefore, a hybrid standard was developed to measure current NCSU Library conditions. This standard is summarized in the 'Recommended' column in the table on the following page. Additionally, the Library is in the process of moving some materials to a new satellite (off-site) storage facility. This facility will begin accepting materials in 2002 and will eventually house up to 1,000,000 volume equivalents. Materials that will be moved to the satellite facility are monographs (approximately 351,000 volumes), serials (approximately 378,000 volumes) and special collections (approximately 15,000 boxes).

STAFF Summary of existing Library staffing levels.
Current staffing for the existing library facilities include: D.H.Hill 224 full time staff members 38 half time staff members 169 less than half time staff members Design Library 4 full time staff members 2 half time staff members 8 less than half time staff members Natural Resources Library 3 full time staff members 1 half time staff member 8 less than half time staff members Textiles Library 5 full time staff members 2 half time staff members 12 less than half time staff members Veterinary Medicine Library 5 full time staff members 2 half time staff members 10 less than half time staff members Total Library System Staff Members 241 full time staff members 44 half time staff members 207 less than half time staff members Staff is currently housed in approximately 50,000 square feet in all Library system facilities. Recommended space standards indicate the need for about 49,750 square feet of staff space, so at first glance it would appear that staff space within the Library system is adequate. However, the configuration of the current staff facilities (in the Hill Library) has been created over time by utilizing (usually small) blocks of space as they have become available or necessary, and many areas are not efficiently designed or located relative to other staff spaces.

FACILITY OPPORTUNITIES and PLANNING ASSUMPTIONS
In the development of specific proposals, certain assumptions have been made about the existing facilities. •
Proposals will include renovation and expansion (as necessary to provide collection, study and staff space required by accreditation standards) of the Hill Library, but not a relocation or reconstruction of the entire facility.
•
The Erdahl-Cloyd wing of the Library may be demolished and replaced to provide contiguous space with floor levels that align with the remainder of the library facility. Non-library space currently located in the Erdahl-Cloyd wing (food service and offices) could be housed in the rebuilt west wing of the library.
•
Proposals will be based on space needs and the physical needs of existing facilities.
•
Renovation and expansion of the Hill facility must be phased so as to provide uninterrupted service.
•
No capital improvements will be made to the branch libraries.
Basic assumptions regarding development of the Library Master Plan.

CENTENNIAL CAMPUS Existing and projected conditions at Centennial Campus.
Planning for the future of library service at NC State demands a library presence at the Centennial Campus. Currently there are 1,300 corporate and governmental partner employees, 1,200 University faculty, staff and post-docs, 2,050 University students, and 500 middle school students utilizing facilities on the Campus. The projected population at build-out is 12,500 corporate and governmental partners, 12,500 University faculty, staff, post-docs and students, 7,000 residents, 600 middle school students and 2,400 support personnel. The percentage of partners using the library facilities is also expected to grow as the campus is built out. The College of Engineering is scheduled to complete its move to the Campus by 2005. Partner support is critical to the future of the University, financially and academically – and University Affiliates are currently afforded full University library privileges, including access to library materials, support, instruction and assistance. New buildings at Centennial Campus are located and designed as guided by the University’s Physical Master Plan.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan FUTURE
PROJECTED CONTEXT Future conditions at the NC State campus that will affect Library planning.
As a basis for projecting future needs of the Library System, existing physical conditions were surveyed, current state of the Library's services, collection and facilities was identified, and projections about the future of the University were summarized. From this basis, the projected future of the Library System - over the next 20 years - has been outlined and physical needs defined. Future space needs (collection, study and staff) were generated using existing conditions as a benchmark, with rates of growth of library user population and collections factored in to define the size of facilities that will be required. Growth in the staff required to operate future facilities has been projected and incorporated into future space needs. Development of the Centennial Campus is a central component of the future of the University and library service is required at the Campus to insure its academic vitality. These projections presume full completion of the Centennial Campus as planned. Development of the Library facilities will be completed in accordance with University standards, and specifically with the guidance of the University's Physical Master Plan. The concepts of the Physical Master Plan is especially important in development of the roles of campus buildings and the space around them. Development of transportation and parking systems will be a key component of continued development at the University, and equally vital to the Library System and how it will be used in the future. When a Centennial Campus Library facility is completed and in operation, the Library's collections, now housed primarily in the Hill facility, will be split between two buildings that are separated by two miles, with redundancy primarily in reference and current periodicals. This will necessitate use of both facilities by many students, faculty, staff and partners in their research and studies, and a convenient and usable method of moving between the two campuses will be critical. In addition, Library use by people who are not campus residents places emphasis on the availability of parking on campus. The goals of NC State University are the continued support of its students and the state of North Carolina, and the continued academic excellence of the University. Continued excellence of the University's Library system and the requisite physical expansion and improvements required to maintain this tradition of excellence are a key component of the future of the University.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan FUTURE
LIBRARY COLLECTIONS Analysis of the future of the material holdings of the Library system.
Increasingly, Library collections include electronic access to materials owned and controlled both by the Library and by others outside the physical realm of the Library and the University. But the largest single space requirement for the Library remains area needed for storage of the Library's print collections. Planning for the growth of the University's Library collections is based on analysis and understanding of University of North Carolina (UNC) and Association of College and Research Library (ACRL) standards, comparison of NC State University Library holdings in comparison to other facilities, and analysis of historical information regarding NC State collections. Debate continues about the future of Library collections. Some predict that print collections will actually decline as reliance on and reliability of electronic access to information increases. Many are planning for a general decline in the rate of growth of physical collections, some to the point of adopting a 'one-in/one-out' policy that effectively freezes print collection size. This is usually achieved either through continual assessment and weeding of the print collection or by off-site storage of library materials.

For NC State, we have projected continued growth of print collections as described in the following pages. These projections are based on historic collection growth data and Library Administration determination of materials that will be required to support the continued success of the Library system. Historic growth rates were analyzed and altered in some cases to reflect anticipated changes in acquisition rates of some portions of the collection (see Table 3). Anticipated changes in rates of acquisitions are as follows:

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan Monographs - Growth in book acquisition will decrease below historic levels due to explosive growth of electronic resources in science, technology and engineering, decreased purchases of monographs, and increased costs for serials - which drain funds historically used for monographic acquisition. Current Serials - Serial/journal growth in electronic formats is expanding. The rate of increase in the cost of serials will continue to be a factor in the rate of growth of the serial collections. Therefore, the anticipated rate of growth of serial collections is less than the historic rate of growth. Microforms - It is anticipated that in the future, digitalization and digital preservation will effectively reduce the rate of microform acquisition. Manuscripts and Archives - Special Collections will continue to grow at an increasingly rapid rate as the Libraries strives to obtain custody of key business and practice records of major North Carolina industries and practices, especially those of engineers, architects and agribusinesses operated by key NCSU alumni. Archives also collects the administrative records of university administrators. This collection is rapidly increasing due to the high turnover of University administrators attributable to retirements and other changes occurring at the University. Much of the growth in manuscripts and archives will be accommodated in the Satellite Storage Facility beginning in the Summer of 2002. Graphic - As learning becomes increasingly virtual, the Libraries will convert more physical objects to digital images. Conversions of major slide collections and Special Collections photographs to digital collections will continue at a rapid pace once criteria and priorities for their conversions are set. Sound - Anticipated growth in audio collections has been reduced to reflect a lack of emphasis on music and sound in NC State curricula. Video - Historic acquisition rates for video materials are skewed due to purchases from grants. Projected acquisition rates have been revised downward to reflect decreased reliance on video of science, technology and engineering curricula.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan In addition, we have made assumptions regarding the collection split between the Hill and future Centennial Campus facility. Collections that will be moved to the new Centennial Campus facility are: Geography, Anthropology and Recreation Botany Microbiology Medicine Genomics (Plant Culture and Animal Culture) Technology/Engineering Military Science Naval Science This will result in 61.5% of the Libraries collections being housed in the Centennial Campus Facility, 34.5% in the Hill Library and 4% in the Branches (see the following table). Table 4 – Space Redundancy Assumptions Space Use Space for Users Space for Books Space for Staff O ther Assignable Library Uses
The remaining portions of the print collection will continue to be housed in the Hill library. In addition to the print collections, a portion of the current periodicals, as well as reference Redundancy Assum ption materials, will be duplicated and housed in both 5% of recommended space for Users facilities (about 25,000 items). 25,000 BVE @ .08sqft. each BVE 15% of sum of Space for Study/Reading and Space for Books 10% of recommended space for O ther Library Uses
Seating space for 10% of the anticipated users will be provided in both facilities to accommodate use by students, faculty, staff and partners when their work requires use of both facilities. Staff will also require additional space at both facilities for redundant spaces such as facility administration, receiving, maintenance, reserves and circulation.

FUTURE
LIBRARY USERS The nature of the use of Library materials and space in the future.
Current library users include students, faculty, staff and University Affiliates (partners). These groups will continue to be the primary users of the library in the future. However, the number of users in each of these groups will continue to expand, and the ways they use the library will evolve. Collection Use Demand on the library's collections will continue to increase, although the increased demand will be felt more by electronic access to materials, databases and journals than by use of the print collection. Access to printed materials traditionally occurs by patrons visiting the building and physically browsing and accessing materials, but also increasingly by requests from outside the library for materials to be delivered to other locations on campus, and in the future by access of materials stored off-site. When materials are requested from outside the library or to be retrieved from off-site storage, electronic access to library databases is also involved in the process. Electronic access and use of materials is expanding at ever-increasing rates, and it is not possible to accurately predict future growth rates in the use of these materials - except to be certain the growth will continue at a fast pace. Electronic materials are accessed from within the library from computers located throughout the facility, from laptop computers connected to the network both within the library and from other locations on campus, and from anywhere in the world via the internet. The impact of use of electronic materials from within the library include increased demand for computers and increased access to the network through the networking of laptop computers. Study Space As with collection use, patron use of the study areas within the library is evolving. The traditional notion of individuals quietly studying materials pulled from the shelves of the library is quickly being replaced by the demand for group study spaces to facilitate collaboration and active learning, instructional spaces, and lounge/student union spaces that often become the heart of both the library and the institution. In addition to the demand for these types of spaces, increasing pressure for more efficient use of space is creating the need for multi-functional spaces that can be

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan used for various purposes at different times of the day and different times of the school year, by a variety of constituents. This varied use of library space demands the careful attention to programming and design that will truly provide this flexibility and efficiency. Staff Space Construction of a second large library facility at Centennial Campus will demand a related increase in staff size that will outdistance the need for staff required solely by an expansion of the Hill facility. As with the redundancy in collections, staff positions will need to be duplicated at the new facility, including receiving, repair and maintenance, circulation and reference staff and administration.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan FUTURE
LIBRARY STAFF Staff needs for the expanded Library system.
As outlined in the Existing Conditions section, the equivalent of approximately three hundred people staff the University libraries. This number will increase with the construction of a new Centennial Campus facility. Current staff areas are in many cases antiquated and functionally limited. Staff space throughout the library has been cobbled together over time in response to changing demands on the staff and with available space. Re-envisioning of the library system and the related facility improvements will allow, and in fact demand, a re-examination of the library staff, their responsibilities, how they do their work, and how they interact with other staff, with library patrons, and with those outside the library. This re-examination is properly part of the programming and design processes, but must be addressed and enabled by preliminary planning. The current NC State library staff is recognized nationally for excellent and innovative service. In order to continue and enhance this reputation, the new library buildings and in particular their staff spaces must be conceived accordingly. Further demand for this re-thinking of staff areas is placed on the library by the fact that competition for both library professionals and paraprofessional staff is acute, and the library environment is a critical factor for recruiting and maintaining top quality staff. There is currently about a 30 percent annual turnover in professional staff. This rate (and the competition for staff that it generates) will increase if, as expected, 40 percent of all librarians (nationally) will retire in the next five years. Additionally, library schools are not graduating a sufficient number of library professionals to keep up with the pace of attrition. Paraprofessional employment turns over at an annual rate of about 23 percent, and low pay and classifications for these positions will increase difficulty of filling them in the future. In the future, as now, staff spaces must be designed for the flexibility and adjacencies to facilitate collaboration among library staff and changing roles of the library staff. Staff spaces must be aesthetically pleasant and functionally efficient to attract exceptional staff, and in addition must be flexible to insure that they will remain so in the future. And work areas should be concentrated to the greatest extent possible yet still offer efficient access to the public areas of the facilities.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan The NC State University 10 Year Capital Plan identifies funds available for library facilities in Phase I (years 2000-2005) and in Phase II (years 2006-2010). Phase I spending is allocated, and totals approximately $8.75M. Specific use of these funds is not defined, but they must be allocated to projects that will support the broader vision of library service at the University. Phase II funding is also defined as approximately $62M, earmarked to correct current deficits and keep up with enrollment growth. The presumption of the recommendations made in this report are that the Phase I amount is set and can be used for capital improvement (primarily) but also in preparation for future phases. Further, Phase II funding levels should be based on a developed and defensible definition of space needs, and the envisioned $62M funding level will not allow the University to meet those needs.
FUTURE
THE PROPOSED FUTURE OF THE NC STATE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY SYSTEM
Development of building programs and designs for renovations and new facilities should be well informed by the NC State University Physical Master Plan. Specifically: • Buildings should contribute to the development and enhancement of human scaled neighborhoods and paths • The buildings should reinforce the pedestrian orientation of the campus • Buildings should enable mixed use activities • Buildings should be designed in harmony with surroundings and other campus buildings • The context of the surrounding city should be considered, especially the relationship of the Hill Library to Hillsborough Street • Concepts of universal design should guide, and the use of the buildings should be clear and intuitive • Maximum advantage should be taken of transportation systems and parking.

Proposed NCSU Library Space
Based on our analysis of existing and projection of future library needs at the University, our proposal includes: • • •
Renovation and expansion of the existing D.H.Hill Library Construction of a new library at Centennial Campus Continued current level of support of existing branch libraries
On the following pages are outlined proposals for a three phase realization of these goals. Section 5 includes diagrams outlining a possible method of addressing Hill and Centennial Campus needs. Section 6 includes brief narratives describing scope of work and budget projections for these projects. In establishing budget projections, assumptions have been made about the timing of the projects in order to account for inflation of construction costs.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan Our proposal includes: Phase 1 Capital Plan Phase I funds should be used to reorganize the East Wing of the existing Hill Library to better accommodate staff needs, as well as enhance study areas for library patrons. This Phase will also include reutilization of approximately 15,000 to 20,000 square feet of existing space in the Hill facility that is currently unusable. The work of this Phase should be programmed and designed based on initial preparation of a system wide library building program, identifying specific long-term space needs in the Hill building, as well as preliminary and conceptual design work for the future renovation and expansion of the facility. This will insure that the Phase I funds will have continued value after the building is fully renovated and expanded in future phases. Emphasis of the Phase 1 work will be renovation of the Ground and First floors of the East Wing, with mechanical and electrical upgrades throughout the wing. The total project cost for this phase is $8.75M. This Phase should commence immediately with architect selection in the spring and summer of 2002, with construction beginning in 2004 and completed in 2005 or 2006. NON-LIBRARY OTHER

Proposed Centennial Campus Library: Library Use Summary
Priorities and goals for renovation of the East Wing include: Improved infrastructure. Providing efficient and comfortable HVAC and ventilation systems throughout the East Wing – improve air quality. Providing improved and flexible electrical systems with adequate capacity for existing and future equipment needs. Providing adequate and efficient space for library staff and users. Providing enhanced services. Specifically, provide enlarged and enhanced areas for housing and study of Special Collections. Special Collection areas should be appropriately located in the facility and provide efficient and protected space for preservation of the unique and historic resources of the University. Improved spaces for and integration of processing of library materials (Technical Services). • • • •
The first tasks for the design team for Phase 1 will be: Complete a building program anticipating complete renovation and expansion of the Hill facility that will insure that Phase 1 work will support future renovation. Review and validate (or revise as necessary) current University space standards for staff spaces. Complete a facility assessment to identify and document the current physical conditions of the facility.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan Following this preliminary work, design will begin on the renovation project, with construction beginning in 2004 and completed in 2005 or early 2006. Phase 1 work will be executed in phases in order for the library to remain operational throughout construction. Phase 2 Phase 2 should include construction of the first phase of a new library facility at the Centennial Campus, programmed according to system wide needs established in Phase 1 and designed in accordance with University standards and informed by the Physical Master Plan. This first phase will provide 202,300 square feet of a Centennial Campus library that will be expanded to 404,600 square feet in Phase 4 of the Library Master Plan. Location of this facility should be on the Academic Oval, maximizing its presence in the academic heart of the Centennial Campus. The Centennial Campus Library will focus emphasis on science, technology and engineering, and will house a larger collection required by these academic departments. Requisite study and collaborative space will also be provided, along with other library spaces such as instructional areas and reading rooms. The study space provided in the facility will be smaller than that of the Hill Library due to the smaller user population. The first phase of the Centennial Campus Library will include: 202,300 total gross square feet 53,620 gross square feet of study space 89,260 gross square feet of collection (stack) space 21,400 gross square feet of staff space 23,320 gross square feet of other library assignable space 67,470 gross square feet of support space 871,000 volumes 1450 user study seats Phase 2 will also include construction of a parking ramp for approximately 340 cars. In addition, the library will be convenient to public transportation. Phase 2 (library and parking) will be designed to accommodate expansion of the facility anticipated in Phase 4.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan Phase 3 Phase 3 will include renovation and expansion of the Hill Library. Our recommendation is to demolish the Erdahl-Cloyd wing, complete renovation of the east wing begun in Phase 1, renovate the Towers, and reconfigure the lower floors of the building and expand the facility to the west (where Erdahl-Cloyd is currently located) to create a clear, understandable, functional and beautiful entry to the facility.

Renovated D.H. Hill: Library Use Summary
Finally, if the timelines proposed in this report are not sustainable, reexamination of the growth assumptions contained herein will be required to insure that future building looks far enough ahead to keep pace with University needs. Phase 3 will begin in 2006 and construction will be completed in 2010 at an estimated total project cost of approximately $82.75M. Phase 4 Phase 4 will expand the Centennial Campus facility (constructed in Phase 2) to its fully programmed size of approximately 404,600 gross square feet. The associated parking ramp will also be expanded to double its initial capacity. Prior to execution of this phase, the library building program must be revisited and revised according to the changing needs of the University. Execution of this phase of the Library Master Plan will occur far enough into the future (more than ten years), that it is likely the building program will change significantly and different space needs developed for the facility. In addition, uncertainty about the timing of this phase makes development of a definitive project budget for this Phase not possible at this time.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan
Collections * extending collection through databases and database searching
* become authoritative collection of info in an area of strength or key thrust; i.e.; polymer science or history of science and technology * create an endowment for online materials; invest money to get more
* invest in getting more or multiple special collections
Science and Technology Faculty Charette - NCSU Libraries Master Plan 9/27/01 If a major donor selected you to direct how to spend $100 million on the library, what would you do? Space People Services * new facility on Centennial Campus-more than a library with gathering space, high use of technology, public/quiet/group spaces, and mechanism to communicate between the two * light, airy space with lots of light; implode building and start over because we have a conglomeration; we need a new, modern building that is a beautiful place to be * current library has least efficient construction; turn into an undergraduate library with lots of study space * new library should be on main campus, but what is main campus?
* invest heavily in collections
* would not invest in space, but would invest instead in collections and services
* need old archival collections and ecollections; needs to find balance between -- what is the right correlation?
do we need distributed libraries by subject or discipline -- no, when you break up library, cross-disciplinary faculty and students are stranded
* need central library that is collegiate/scholarly
Equipment
* staff to add value to info by * provide data mining and organizing, presenting, processing info warehousing services to faculty and in a way that is useful students
* library is focal point for students
* improve e-access to online journals such as Nature
* undergraduate library is a central gathering place and needs collaborative work areas
* get librarians to meet with customers on Centennial Campus more
* no quintessential site on this campus -* we need real coffee in a real - the library should be the focal point coffeebar of the campus * invest in services; value-added from library staff in organizing, indexing, processing and presenting info in a way that is useful * look at from point of symbolic versus social impact; for example, special collections bring people in/the symbol of a library -- should define what it is to be a student at a university -- collegiate environment/scholarly * good transit system

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan Management Council Charette - NCSU Libraries Master Plan 9/27/01 If a major donor met you at a party and wanted to give you $100 million to build the finest library on the planet, what would you do? Collections Space People Services * improve serials inflation - gap filling; take care of bimodal (print and eresource) issues
* tear down East Wing and ErdahlCloyd and integrate space in a manner so that you know where you are and you can access it simply * collaborative study areas; crosstraining and symposia areas * lots of power * integrate the goals of theuniversity with the way the library is built -thrusts represented by pods * emphasis on ambience -- a bright, cheery place where people can work individually or together; facility that is put together know what users need and the flow of how people work in a library taken into consideration; need R and D on understanding the be * open, airy, light, friendly, welcoming * lots of meeting/study space for individuals or groups
* flexible rooms; flexibility * easily accessible/wayfinding easy for first-timers * perfect air conditioning and heating
* greater use of natural light * increased teaching lab space for integrated curriculum instruction * warm, fuzzy, welcoming building * more money toward a centrally located facility
Equipment
* attract and retain competent people; * ubiquitous, wireless network access give flexibility
* upgrade support staff positions
* collect and maintain data adequately
* more engineering librarians who understand their collection
* transportation system that is extremely good * sense of community and where it fits; collaborative/where people work well together * when users first come in doors of library -- need immediate place to get assistance -- RISD and ADS at entrance
* all technologies available ubiquitously without a lot of hassle * increased accessibility to collections -on-site rather than remote; adequate people to process; adequate PC availability to access e-collections * increased parking/access * spend money creating atmosphere/spaces for personal interactions with clients focus on Centennial Campus, build new building; share with DELTA, LRCDA, ITD -- take advantage of synergies between these two groups * rapid delivery of physical items to user's office * entrances confusing; accessibility is an issue * need excellent wayfinding; wayfinding still confusing * ability to have resources to do what we want and need to do
* take down Erdahl-Cloyd and East Wing and put two more towers up; take Harrelson and put in nice restaurant * have moveable walls in training labs so they could be used as public computers when not in use GIS mapping lab; digital media lab * floor heights need to be the same in all buildings * need good work space for staff and students * clarity of organization and access

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan Student Charette - NCSU Libraries Master Plan How can the Library increase service to students? People
Collections
Space
* more copies of textbooks; students, particularly international students, don't have sufficient access
* another 150-seat movie theatre for classes
* need system to monitor and ensure reserves are shared fairly and to ensure students don't leave with reserve materials
* library facilities on Centennial Campus
*expand gross square footage of the Libraries, to include: offices for graduate students, new technology collection space, more collections space, more individual and group study rooms, more computer labs, study rooms for upper classmen that hold 10 peopl * the stacks are creepy
* need hard-core study areas * need chill-out space with books in space that are browseable for recreational reading * need another entrance at the front door (Hillsborough Street)
Services
Equipment
* Public Safety issues need to be resolved; issues in stacks upstairs
* program needs to be implemented to make students aware of library programs; workshops during orientation, outreach, promotion and advertising * library needs to be fully staffed 24/7 * need food/coffeebar (Libraries will have Spring, 2002)
* student body president needs office in library
* need more computers/ computer access
* need computers dedicated to specific users/uses (zoned computers based on discipline)
* need mini-libraries so students don't have to walk all the way over to the main library
* need better shuttle or parking deck attached to library, plus Public Safety presence at night * need more hours/fully staffed during all hours * engineering software needs to be available on computers in collaborative studies for engineering students * have sufficient workers during peak times so students don't have to wait for assistance * librarians need to make selections/recommendations of "what's cool" to read and have a display like Barnes and Noble * needs to be a service spot in the Erdahl-Cloyd Wing and it needs to be staffed * need coffeebar (Spring 2002)

Began the meeting requesting a discussion of how the attendees feel about the Library as a service agent of the University and how the Library serves the individual departments.
JS:
Asked what about the future is important.
TS: Technology GO: Expansion of the Graduate Programs JB: Is the Library a hub of the electronic network or are hubs contained within the College? Size related to the size of the University - the undergraduate size may exceed the 2010 goal of 31,000. More interested in access than who controls content. KP: Place is important for students and space is limited in current buildings. JB: Consider changing the configuration of classrooms (other new University buildings have study/classrooms in teaching buildings). Don't want to duplicate space in both teaching and

Library Master Plan Library buildings. Do we put study space in Library or in academic units. In business schools, the trend is to put space in the academic units. New residence hall in design has study space but existing, older residence halls don't have those spaces. Concept of a Library as a place is changing the range of information services the Library is to provide. How much space will be required since much of what the Library provides is accessible through computers off site. The trend is that faculty are asking the Library more and more to be a repository for information. For Veterinary Medicine, images are important and they would like for the Library to be the center for image storage. Faculty are making their own collections part of the Library collection. The concept of World Class is dependent upon the reputation of the faculty and students, and their competitiveness and ability to generate grant money. Reputation is especially dependent upon graduate students. What is the correlation between attracting people and place? Some disciplines are not dependent on facilities. In the sciences, space and equipment are critical. Facilities are more important at institutions like NCSU. Some Universities traditionally ranked high and it is more critical for NCSU to have top facilities to compete with those institutions. In part, NCSU is staking claim to the future by being an engaged University. Facilities are important and Centennial Campus is the cornerstone for becoming a premier engaged institution. The goal of 12,500 students, 12,500 partners and 10,000 residents, with faculty and students from all nine academic units with no Library at Centennial won't work. Do we want to extend the reach of the Library beyond the University? Partner's employees have access to the Library. The trend is to deliver education from a distance. It is helpful for information to be in a central location. Also, everyone is tired of the term "World Class". Suggested the term "Top 25". Mentioned accreditation requirements. Always outdistance vision. Student growth, growth in research, progress of Library (through leadership, not necessarily facility) are critical. What's going on in the Library is something faculty recruiters point out to prospects. The Library will have to be the place for students to go to verify information. Web site use, especially, gives students the need for somewhere to go where information can be verified. Advocates electronic Library. The Library should be the cathedral of the University. Hill Library is ordinary. If constructing a new building, thought should be given to having some view in the Library. The Library is disappointing compared to other facilities. The Library needs a grand space. There is a lot more to the Library than passing out information.
JS:
What would you do with $50M to spend on the Library. Why is NCSU unique and deserving of the money? JB: NCSU is a great University and moving rapidly in Science and Engineering Technology. It is pursuing its mission aggressively. Looking for ways to redefine a land grant University of the 21st Century. How will the University engage constituents outside the University? NCSU is increasingly successful at getting private money in addition to public money. GO: Land grand doesn't just mean accessible. Programs, in Humanities, are engaged. Pure research but also practical research.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan Investment in NCSU would yield better return than at other institutions. Solution to problems people care about. Where do interactions occur? What better place than the Library? A student union/Library. GW: What is the optimum size and population the Library would serve in its role as a central meeting space? Efficiency of the Library's location is critical. JB: Warehousing model considered for low use materials must be considered. TS: OF:

Opened discussing parallel models - what should be vs. what is available. From the previous discussion, a service model is most important. Place as the intellectual center of campus. Likes the model of the Library retaining the old while adopting the new. Access to print material is important. Has concerns about single copy archiving. Likes browsing and seeing what's adjacent to what's being sought. More important for students to browse since they largely don't understand electronic research. Challenge for Library services - can books be browsed virtually, not just physically. Hopes the Master Plan can recognize areas of growth that aren't space and capital dependent. Tactile quality of books is important. Important to have related books shelved adjacent to one another. Quiet is important. Work alone and concentrate. Important to have electronic access in the Library where you can work alone and have quiet. Also need to preserve the culture of the place. It is a place related to academics. There is a mental change in the Library and it is important. One is less likely to be interrupted. There is a need for a real undergraduate Library. All libraries should have a unique identity. A Centennial Campus Library should be a research library, and the Hill Library should be an undergraduate library. Centennial Library should primarily be a research library and should also afford the opportunity to teach. Should also be a communication center and should be poised to capitalize on future technologies. Should have places to meet. Branch libraries should be maintained and improved.

Vice Chancellors/Deans - Group B Attendees: Jeffrey Scherer (JS), Jack Poling (JP) - Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle Susan Nutter (SN), June Brotherton (JB) - NCSU Libraries Patrick Deaton (PD), Paula Miller (PM) - J Hyatt Hammond Mike Harwood (MH), Lisa Johnson (LJ) - University Architect Vice Chancellor Charlie Moreland (CM) - Research Vice Chancellor Blanton Godfrey (BG) - Textiles Vice Chancellor Marvin Malecha (MM) - Design Vice Chancellor Nino Masnari (NM) - Engineering Vice Chancellor Kay Moore (KM) - Education Vice Chancellor Dan Solomon (DS) - Physical & Mathematical Scienced Associate Dean Margaret King (MK) - Graduate School MM: In design there is an interesting dilemma and several things happening. All students must have a computer. High need for tactile information with images (textiles, art and design). Studios need an immediacy of contact with collections (during studio time). Sees the Library as a living part of their building. Has insisted the Library maintain the most prominent spot in their building. Accreditation looks heavily at the visual collection and the Library. Responsible for making design best in the nation and can do that only if other disciplines on campus are excellent. BG: Has some library space on Centennial Campus. Sees development of space as being parallel to the concept of Barnes & Noble. MK: There is no branch library for the Graduate School. CM: Things aren't equal. Some colleges have more need for a branch library than others. KM: College of Education struggles. It is not well supported by the Library. Curriculum materials are not in the Library. Maintain a small Library for teaching resources (moving toward electronic sources but not entirely). Large part of graduate College is in Asheville (doctoral preparation). Struggling with the idea of what kind of a collection would be housed in a Centennial Campus library facility. DS: Most departments have small collections of current key periodicals. On line prints serve well. Undergraduate needs to be served on line and by the Hill facility. NM: Concerned with Centennial Campus serving Engineering needs. Engineering is in nine buildings. Electronic access is important. Critical for the Library to have a strong presence on Centennial Campus. MM: Has frustrations with the speed of digitizing. KM: Scholars are not going to the Library as much - at least in Social Sciences - or using the Library as much. They are working from home or from their offices. They are seeking ways to not come to campus. Non-traditional students are requiring different types of course delivery. MM: We shouldn't neglect the role of the Library as a meeting space. CM: Not a good ides to separate the University by undergraduate (main campus) and graduate (Centennial Campus). Humanities, Life Sciences and Physical Sciences will remain on the north campus. MM: Approach it from what the spirit of Centennial Campus is about - freewheeling, open rooms for collaboration, special collections. Hill is a traditional library. BG: The Library will also serve the partners. Centennial Campus library should have conference rooms to meet with companies.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan KM: Library should be a place for faculty to gather across disciplines (faculty club concept). CM: Thinks Centennial Campus will be driven by multidisciplinary interaction and activity, and less so in the future with the partners. BG: Parking is a huge problem. Travel to Centennial Campus to Hill is a problem and will inhibit use of Hill by people from Centennial Campus. CM: Should have some redundancy in the two libraries. There is a lack of study space in Hill - the building should have a lot more study space. This cuts down on camaraderie. MM: Several things should be different about the Centennial Campus Library. Special collections and product library should be in the College of Design. Great reading rooms are always full of students (library at Univ. Texas at Austin). Centennial Campus Library should have a great reading room. KM: A well is a metaphor for the Library - draw and gather information as water from a well. CM: Should be careful not to pre-determine what Hill will be as a result of this renovation. Look at the longer term and the plan for the Centennial Campus Library. Start from broader needs and then get more specific. JS: NM: BG: CM:
What distinguishes NCSU? Centennial Campus and the fact that NCSU is a land grant University. Cross college/cross industry collaboration. NCSU uses partnerships to serve needs. Partners are at NCSU because the University needed them to aid development. MM: The entrepreneurial spirit. NCSU is problem-focused and lowering the walls between disciplines and between the University and industry. BG: Libraries should have classrooms. CC: Library location is critical. BG: The Library should be convenient to both colleges - on the west side of the oval. Presence on the oval is critical - not in the town center. D. Design Team Attendees: Jeffrey Scherer (JS), Jack Poling (JP) - Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle Susan Nutter (SN), June Brotherton (JB) - NCSU Libraries Patrick Deaton (PD), Paula Miller (PM) - J Hyatt Hammond Mike Harwood (MH), Lisa Johnson (LJ) - University Architect JS:
Do Master Plan options represent an idealized state or a consentual state? The Centennial Campus Library needs will be defined by standards, but standards requirements may not really reflect the true Centennial Campus dynamic. Needs will be developed by use summary of existing facilities in addition to thinking about what is needed. There are community space issues. Legibility of the building is a big issue. MH: The University has come to a consensus. There is one problem with two components, which will be shaped differently. First, increasing needs on Centennial Campus and second, needs on the north campus and the fact that the Hill Library is not working very well. We need to frame the larger issues, then determine how the Phase One $9M allotment will be used. We shouldn't be so focused on the first phase that we ignore the larger issues and leave them for later. SN: Fundraising will follow after recommendations are made to the Chancellor. Another component is staffing the Library. Forty percent of librarians nationally are due to retire in the next four years. The Library won't be able to attract great people without quality

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan facilities. The Library can't merely address the condition of collaborative spaces, it must also address work space. Ground floor work will come out of the initial $9M. We should try to accomplish something on many fronts, and not spend all resources on one effort. How does the Master Plan support the Board of Trustees' desire for the NCSU Libraries to be ranked in the Top 25 nationally? JS: How do we package the vision of the NCSU Libraries with very few words and images? An effective executive summary with back-up. MH: Bond money is meant to first deal with deficiencies in current facilities, and second to allow for future growth. net/l/2001029NCS/word/2001029MM02.doc

How does the library fit into the daily lives of the participants, and how might library services at Hill/Centennial Campus fit in the future?
SZ: Doesn’t use the library much since completing her degree. Doesn’t know what’s in the library. Has difficulty finding what’s in the library. Hasn’t found a user friendly source of information about how the library functions (defined user friendly as a site map of resources, how to find resources, and how to use them. Can use the internet, but not necessarily for scholarly research. Willing to some degree to compromise quality of material by searching the internet rather than using the library. Doesn’t like the way of getting into and out of the library. Feels the library was more alive when the Hillsborough entry was open and the light panel was more visible. Would use the library more if it was easier to use physically and better organized. JC: Uses the library often without traveling to the library via electronic journal access. Agrees with assessment of use problems – dislikes multitude of stairways and confusion about how to get around. Will go to the library when necessary. Not willing to compromise on web/library search. Service need being met electronically – electronic access works but could be more clear and accessible – much information is available. RB: Library is essential to everything he does. Uses pre-electronic collection extensively in research and in teaching. Uses the internet but most material used is from electronic journals or print materials.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan GL: Uses the library a lot, especially from the office. Likes use of electronic journals and student use of electronic journals is important. Uses electronic reserve – students have a hard time finding materials on-line. The search engine within electronic reserve could be improved. One difficulty – coming to the library to get journals. Territoriality among the Hill Library and branches is a problem. Library could be a little more people friendly. Use of strollers is a problem with the elevators. JC: Sometimes students have problems with lost material – can’t find materials that should be in the library. Has had trouble finding material not reshelved properly. Surprised that there’s not a copy machine on every floor. RK: Air conditioning is bad. Uses the library and likes the electronic journals – could have more electronic journals. AB: Mechanisms for ordering materials (tripsaver, etc.) are very helpful. Uses the library for personal research projects and wants to browse in the University library, not in the public library. Browsing the stacks is important. SZ: Accessibility is an issue – would use the library more if there were a library concierge – a person to talk to for help in searching and using the library. JC: Students need to learn how to use the library themselves – the only way is the hard way. Closed stacks would be a mistake – the ability to browse is important. Can’t imagine what the impact of the Centennial Campus library will be – had not heard that a library was planned there. Should be a main library on the main campus and accessibility would preclude the Centennial Campus library from being the main library. SN: A Centennial Campus library would be a subject focused library. GL: Student library use is often for group work (especially by Juniors and Seniors) because there are good places to work in groups as well as computer access. This brings students to the Hill library. RB: Twenty-four hour access is very helpful. SZ: Having a study carrel was very helpful while completing graduate work. SN: Not having carrels assigned is very limiting. Can only seat four percent of the students in the library. Staff space is also a problem. Staff spaces have not been updated since 1954. RK: A crazy idea would be to create some way of getting books delivered from the library to other points on campus. This might support a closed stack model. SN: Asked if people would be willing to pay for this service. JC: Would be willing to pay for delivery, maybe between one and three dollars. SZ: Likes to go to the public library and bookstores. Interesting to see if there can be more engagement with the University divisions and the public – more forums for community discussions and engagement. Also an interesting concept about how to introduce the virtual community to this idea. JC: Asked if there is a realistic assignment at the graduate level to insure that new graduate students understand the library use and use of search engines. Is there an orientation for graduate students? GL: There is a problem with people not citing print materials in scholarly research – too much reliance on use of electronic materials and associated ethical problems.

General Faculty and Staff Senate Charette 2 Attendees: Jeffrey Scherer (JS), Jack Poling (JP) - Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle Susan Nutter (SN), June Brotherton (JB) - NCSU Libraries Paula Miller (PM) - J Hyatt Hammond Lisa Johnson (LJ) - University Architect Suzanne Purrington (SP) – Physical and Mathematical Sciences - Chemistry Jerry Davis (JD) – Physical and Mathematical Sciences – Marine, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences John Carroll (JC) – Humanities and Social Sciences - Philosophy Gregory Lewbart (GL) – Veterinary Medicine – Aquatic Medicine David McAllister (DM) – Engineering – Computer Science Mary Myers (MM) – Design – Landscape Architecture Allen Chao (AC) – Engineering – Civil Engineering Michelle Jones (MJ) – Textiles – Textile Apparel, Technology and Management Yu-Fai Leung (YL) – Parks, Recreation, Tourism Management Ivy Jaeger (IJ) - Textiles JS:
Opened by asking if the library is meeting departmental needs.
JD: Asked if a branch library was being planned for Centennial Campus. DM: Library doesn’t meet the needs of students. The library should be able to loan, archive, house sound and video laboratories, and loan materials via wireless connection. Students are served by multimedia labs and classes have fifty to one hundred twenty students – groups size varies by medium presented. YL: Parking at Hill is difficult. Can’t use the library for more than an hour without paying for parking. AC: Students have had problems getting materials – quantity of materials housed, copyright issues, etc. DM: Building must be wired adequately initially. A major investment must be made in a teleconferencing center. JC: It is important for the library to keep doing what it is doing – only more and better. Has a hard time keeping up with the services that are being offered. JD: Asked if branch library sizes static. SN: Responded that Deans have control over branch library space use. JD: Asked what the development strategy was for the Centennial Campus library. SN: Responded that the University will have to decide what collections will be in the Centennial Campus library – but probably engineering and textiles. IJ: Electronic reserves information is never in the same order. The quality is not good. Often encounters printing problems. AC: Has had trouble finding microfiche that should be available. SN: Will have problems in the future with fiche. Planning to move some fiche to storage and delivery will be to the desk, not to the library. YL: New microfiche machines are difficult to use and often experience printing problems. DM: Proposed dual purpose stacks – stacks material will disappear and what will be done with all of the vacated space? Discussed the argument that no library will be needed in the future. MJ: Library of the future should have modular, collaborative workspaces with access to online material.

NC STATE UNIVERSITY Library Master Plan Asked what should be done with $100M to improve library service. Suggested implementation of a courier service to deliver library materials throughout campus. Less time in the library is better. JD: Suggested a first class facility on Centennial Campus and enhanced branch libraries. MM: Library is the most important icon of the University – suggested construction of a new library.
JS: IJ:
JS: SP:
Asked what priorities should be for Phase One spending. Suggested relocation of the Faculty Senate out of the building and renovation of that space for library use. SN: Indicated it would be possible to move the Faculty Senate. JD: Indicated it is important to be able to browse. Building entry and use of the library wings is confusing. net/l/2001029NCS/word/2001029MM03.doc

FACILITY INSPECTION REPORT FACILITY:
D. H. HILL LIBRARY, N.C. STATE UNIVERSITY
SCOPE OF INSPECTION:
ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL
DATE OF INSPECTION:
4 JANUARY 2002
INSPECTED BY:
ROBERT BOUKNIGHT, ROBERT KIME, PATRICK DEATON, PAULA MILLER
(JHHA) ELECTRICAL:
A general walk-through inspection of the D.H. Hill Library was conducted on 1/4/02. Harold Allen of the NCSU staff answered a number of questions while he was present during the visit. Areas inspected included basement level mechanical and electrical spaces, the south tower mechanical penthouse, much of the first and second level floor areas, and several tower floors. Mr. Allen described the facility electrical distribution system as "saturated" in both load capacity and space capacity, especially in the two older wings of the building. The majority of the electrical distribution system observed was located in the South Tower basement. For the most part, the electrical equipment observed appeared antiquated. Readily-available replacement parts for this equipment is most likely an issue now and would definitely be a concern for the future. Some equipment has been updated recently such as a few variable-speed drives for new pumps and a UPS for the main computer room. There were a few branch circuit panels observed which are located flush mounted in public spaces of the library. These panels also appeared antiquated. From the brief walkthrough observations, it would appear that a significant amount of the electrical distribution system in the areas observed will need to be updated if not completely reworked to provide the facility the flexibility to grow and change in the future. Also located in the South Tower basement is the facility's main reporting station for the fire alarm system. There are two systems of different types and ages located in one dedicated room and a third system located out in the mechanical space. Mr. Allen indicated that the systems are addressable. Some fire alarm equipment is surfacemounted in public areas of the facility. Further investigation into the interaction between these systems and their ability to meet the future needs of the facility is required. Many areas observed during the walk through are utilizing antiquated lighting technology. Surface-mounted wraparound luminaries with T12 lamps are used in a large portion of the facility observed. New lighting taking advantage of the latest technology should

reduce the lighting power consumption of the facility and provide an opportunity to enhance the aesthetics of interior spaces as well.
MECHANICAL:
A general walk-through inspection of the D.H. Hill Library HVAC systems was conducted on 1/4/02. Harold Allen of the NCSU staff answered a number of questions while he was present during the visit. Areas inspected included basement level mechanical and electrical spaces, the south tower mechanical penthouse, much of the first and second level floor areas, and several tower floors. Heat for the facility is derived from the campus steam distribution system. Two 400-ton (each, est.) chillers of 1987 vintage are located in the South Tower basement. These were not running during our visit. Mr. Allen stated that the chilled water system might be interconnected with other buildings. A built-up air-handling unit in the basement generates air conditioning for the West Wing portion of the facility. Further conditioning is provided by a system of perimeter fan coil units (FCU's). This system appears to be of the same vintage as the building itself. Considerable evidence of leaking from the perimeter system is present and the FCU's are poor in physical appearance. The interior of the built-up AHU was not investigated, but the outdoor dampers are in poor condition. This system should be replaced. A significant effort should be made to eliminate the fan coils from the occupied spaces during renovation. Air conditioning for the towers is provided by two built-up air-handler systems in mechanical penthouses, one for each tower. Access was not available to the North Tower penthouse or to the two cooling towers. The South Tower penthouse AHU appears to be a high quality installation appropriate for the facility. Excessive negative pressure in the return section is causing damage to the unit. This should be rectified as soon as possible. Although installed capacity has not been investigated, the South Tower air system should prove to be flexible and adaptable to serve revised space usage. This statement should generally apply to the North Tower system. HVAC for the West Wing appears to be original to when the building was constructed as a student center. It is recommended that the HVAC be replaced with systems appropriate for planned future uses of that portion of the facility.
