Libraries is significantly over capacity, often with over 10,000 visits in a
single day. Before the opening of the Hunt Library, we could seat less
than 5% of our students—far short of the University of North Carolina’s
standard of providing library study seating for 20% of the student population.
Immerses NC State in technology advantage
The NCSU Libraries has long been a bold technology incubator for NC State, making it easy for students and faculty to
immerse themselves in the technologies driving our economy. The Hunt Library builds upon that tradition, giving the
university an iconic space filled with technology-enabled furniture, high-definition video walls, 3D computing and
visualization space, andvideoconferencing and telepresence facilities. Inspiring a spirit of discovery, the Hunt Library
will help to produce the next generations of technology-savvy citizens, employees, researchers, and scholars.
Inspires great work with bold, adventurous
spaces
In the digital age, libraries have become the creative space where
students spend enormous amounts of their time—working, creating,
studying, and interacting with peers. Faculty members and researchers,
as well, need specialized spaces that support their research and teaching
and build a sense of scholarly community. These spaces need to be
comfortable they need to make it easy to collaborate they need to be
inspiring. Every corner of the Hunt Library is designed to be memorable
and stunning—an environment where people are encouraged to breathe
life into the aspirations of an outstanding university.
