Roger Williams University Library

Bristol, Rhode Island

Roger Williams University commissioned RGB to design a new main library from the ground up. The building was to be the cornerstone of the University’s long-range plan, to incorporate current technology with a high degree of flexibility. RGB’s design solution included a bell tower marking the center of the coastal campus. The 55,000 square foot, 180,000 volume library served as a primary focal element and symbol of identity for the campus.
