Renovation of Neilson Library and adjacent Alumnae Gymnasium included removing newer additions to the library and replacing with transparent glass "jewel box" structures, replacing the center of Neilson with a large atrium and skylight, creating dedicated special collections and archival space, utilizing below grade levels for storage of print collections, and creating academic support areas and a café.
