Alumni Bulletin - Fall 2007 - (Page 35) m m Linderman is a destination for students, faculty, and visitors to campus. PHOTO BY DOUGLAS BENEDICT by Elizabeth Shimer Bowers Preservation∑ Renovation∑ Transformation Linderman Renewed ∑ It seemed like an impossible task: Add state-of-the-art technology to make the building more responsive to how today’s students study and learn without compromising Linderman Library’s magnificent 1878 High Victorian and 1929 collegiate Gothic historic architecture, character, and ambiance. But eight years and $19 million after Lehigh first began serious talks about the renovation of one of its oldest and most significant buildings, the seemingly impossible transformation has been achieved. With its elegant charm and functionality, Linderman Library houses the spirits of yesterday’s students while catering to the needs of the students of today … and tomorrow. Lehigh President Alice P. Gast aptly summed up the role the library plays in the life of the Lehigh community at the rededication ceremony in May: “The Lehigh campus, which so many call ‘home,’ is again blessed to have such a beautiful library, which will, no doubt, be the soul of the campus for generations to come.” Brad Eric Scheler ’74, ’05P, ’08P, a Lehigh trustee and chair of the Linderman Project Advisory Committee charged with raising funds and awareness for the project, says: “We live in an age of change brought about by constant advances in technology and the remarkable proliferation of information, data, and resources. To meet the challenges of the 21st century, the evolution of Linderman was essential and mandatory. “All at Lehigh worked tirelessly to preserve and protect the Linderman we know and love, while making it as useful and relevant to the students of the next 100 years as Linderman has been to Lehigh students for more than a century.” fall 2007 35
