We are excited to announce that the Glencoe Public Library in Glencoe, Illinois, has selected SOM as the master space planner. This collaboration will develop a comprehensive master space plan to address the library's current issues and lay the groundwork for potential renovations of its interior spaces, grounds, and infrastructure. Having worked on prominent libraries across the country, including Chicago’s Chinatown Public Library, the Billie Jean King Main Library in Long Beach, and Yale University’s Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, we are honored to be part of this exciting transformation of one of Glencoe's most cherished public facilities. "At a time when spaces for learning and gathering are rapidly evolving, libraries are more important than ever, and the vibrancy of the Glencoe Public Library demonstrates this perfectly," says SOM Partner and Glencoe resident Adam Semel. "We are proud and honored to partner with Glencoe in charting its future through this master plan." Learn more about our upcoming work with the Glencoe community below. MORE → bit.ly/3VsmZ8w
