In the coming years, the Georgia Tech Library will be undergoing a renewal process where both library buildings will be redesigned to best support Tech’s 21st-century campus community. How will this new state-of-the-art design be more environmentally-friendly than the current buildings? What sustainability initiatives were a part of the design process? How does the Library Renewal connect to the campus sustainability plan? These topics will be discussed by Ameet Doshi (Georgia Tech Library), Howard Wertheimer (Capital Planning & Space Management), and Stuart Romm (College of Architecture, Principal-in-Charge with LP3 Architecture, Atlanta).

For many students, the undergraduate experience has become less transformative and more transactional. The integrated planning goals for Georgia Institute of Technology's Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons, based on pilot spaces at the library, were aimed at increasing engagement between students, faculty, and academic support units to enrich the learning experience. To determine if goals were achieved, researchers from the institution and the design team partnered to assess the commons, identify improvements, and contribute to a continuous improvement process for future projects.
