Nashville, Tenn.
Trevecca Nazarene University expected to dedicate its new $10.5 million Waggoner Library and Center for Instructional Technology in November 2000. The three-story, 61,489-sf facility was designed by Earl Swensson Associates (ESa) of Nashville. ESa also served as interior designer for the library. The periodicals and rotunda areas, which serve as the building's main gathering space, are also designed to accommodate hosted receptions. The grand reading room housing stacks and tables is bathed in natural light. The MBA lecture room features tiered seating for 80. The structure is the first of a two-building campaign establishing an identifiable "gateway" to the campus.
