The 100,000 SF Leathery Libraries complex features 10 libraries, each focused on a different subject. With space for more than 300,000 books, bound volumes, and media, the $24 million steel-frame structure has 700 seats and houses six multimedia preview rooms, a cyber courtyard attached to 24-hour study commons, a 60-station computer lab, and 16 group study rooms.

Veneklasen Associates provided acoustical and audio-visual design services for the building.
