This building, which is an original and daring design, consists of five floors and is sphere shaped. It is in the central square of the campus with magnificent views in all directions. It is anticipated that there will be room for 700,000 volumes and about 1,250 students. And in the near future, with easy extensions, these figures will be tripled. The central nucleus and the concrete columns constitute the vertical structure, from which the beams which support the floors extend. The majority of these elements have been left exposed.
