Join River Campus Libraries in Rochester, NY, September 28-30, 2025, for Designing Libraries XII, where librarians, architects, planners, designers, information technologists, and others come together to explore the achievements and challenges of designing libraries and learning spaces for the 21st century. Over the last decade, the University of Rochester’s River Campus Libraries has used a strategic space plan to guide the development of active, experiential and technology-rich learning and research spaces for student and faculty success in Rush Rhees and the Carlson Science and Engineering Libraries.
The program is now posted to the Program and Registration page (https://www.library.rochester.edu/designinglibraries/program)! You can review titles, speakers, and descriptions for the pre-conference programs, keynote, and sessions, as well as the conference policies.
You can register via the registration platform (https://designinglibrariesxii.eventbrite.com/) from now through September 13, 2025.
Please see the Accommodations and Travel page (https://www.library.rochester.edu/designinglibraries/accommodations-and-transportation) for links to special hotel room rates and information on traveling to Rochester.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to River Campus Libraries with any questions ([email protected]). They look forward to welcoming you all to the University of Rochester!
The bookstore will be at the event selling copies of Andrew Frontini's book, "Episodes in Public Architecture"!
