Rice Library prepares for the future with new plans, programs
BY SARA LOWMAN
The most recent planning cycle for the physical expansion of Fondren Library began in 1992 and accelerated in mid-decade. Many features of the university remain familiar after 12 years: the publication of printed books and journals as a salient medium of scholarly exchange; the fundamental importance of a residential university as a forum for self discovery and intellectual growth; and the role of a library as central to one’s educational experience.
