Please reply to Paula directly if you have comments for her: >>At the University of Washington we are hoping to find donor support to build a new Fine Arts Library. At this point we are considering two ideas -- a stand-alone Fine Arts Library, or else a Fine Arts Center that would contain a Fine Arts Library. Our existing separate Music, Art, and Drama Libraries (all in extremely cramped quarters) would be combined into this new library. Here is my question: Does anyone know of similar libraries, built within the last 10 years, either academic or public? It wouldn't need to be this exact combination of music/art/drama, but perhaps a combination of just art and music or drama and music. We'd like to find out more about successful fine arts libraries that would be new and state-of-the art so that we can present a good proposal.
