Help build the future of Miami University's Libraries by supporting the King Library Flagship Renovation Project, which is working to transform King Library into a modern, welcoming, and robust library for today's Miamians—and generations to come.
In 2017, the Libraries unveiled our Facilities Master Plan, envisioning a true flagship library for Miami University through a transformational, $50 million renovation of King Library. To achieve this goal, we've divided the full plan into impactful and achievable phases, all coordinated to build on one another to fulfill a vision of a library to serve Miami and its community now and into the future.
Construction is anticipated to begin this fall on a bold first step: transforming a former computer lab into a suite of vibrant and inviting collaborative spaces that integrate with the popular adjacent instruction room.
The area's design and materials will set the standard for the work still to come in our plan for the first and ground floors, and ultimately, the whole building.
Each phase builds upon the one before, creating incremental but high-impact change that all drives toward our larger vision.
Students, faculty, and staff have clearly articulated their need for a modernized flagship library, and so the Libraries are investing in this crucial infrastructure project to meet their needs and reflect the caliber of Miami's scholarship.
