  • News from Member Libraries
    News from member libraries University of Birmingham STAFF Diane Job has been appointed as Director of Library Services, effective 1 September 2009. Diane was previously responsible for the leader- ship of the faculty of medicine libraries at Impe- rial College London. Library services is one of six divisions within academic services. REFU R BI S HMENT The feasibility study stage of the main library refurbishment project is now well under way and is expected to be completed in autumn 2009. Ini- tial planning is already under way for relocation and decant of services and collections during the period of the refurbishment work, which could take up to five years. SPECIAL COLLECTION S MOVE S Special collections, which had previously been part of library services, became a separate divi- sion within academic services in 2009. The uni- versity is currently in the process of developing a new facility for special collections, which will bring all the collections, public service and con- servation facilities together into one purpose-built space spread over three floors at the heart of the main Edgbaston campus. The new accommoda- tion is expected to be completed by autumn 2009 and includes exhibition facilities, a seminar room for up to 30 people and research space, together with an estimated ten years of expansion space for collections, two purpose-built storage areas for archives and rare books, a reprographics suite, staff accommodation and a purpose-built conser- vation studio. The new facility, to be named the ‘Cadbury research library’, forms part of a refur- bishment of the iconic Muirhead Tower, one of the most easily recognizable buildings on the main Edgbaston campus.
