College of Idaho Cruzen-Murray Library
The College of Idaho Cruzen-Murray Library is a multi-award winning 60,000 SF, three-story academic library with a full walkout basement, a composite steel structure that supports the raised access flooring and concave roof framing. Its light-infused, glass and steel design has a sleek, modern look and feel. The exterior skin glazing is shaded with unique, perforated sheet metal fins that articulate around the oval perimeter.
The facility includes traditional holdings of books and journals, as well as private and group study areas, a 24/7 study space, multimedia classrooms, a café, and public spaces for readings, lectures and exhibitions.
