Art, Design & Media Library

January 2007 – Opening of ADM Library

Renovation at the ADM Library was completed in December 2006 and the Library was operational in January 2007.

The Library is divided into two main areas, identified by 2 contrasting colour themes. The front is a darker and quiet area with black colour shelves, furniture and carpet for individual studying and reading. The second, a brighter and noisy area with mostly white colour shelves, furniture and cement flooring for group discussion and studying.

A variety of shelves were installed to cater to a wide range of formats of materials that are available in the Library, namely large-size books, current and bound periodicals, newspapers and AV materials.


September 2006 – Start of Renovation

The renovation of the ADM Library has finally started. It would take approximately two months for the renovation to be completed and another month for all the shelves and furniture to be installed.

The designer of the ADM Library space is Mr Shiran Sooriya-Arachchi, Creative Director of Tank, who is also a part-time lecturer with the School of Art, Design & Media. Shiran presented to the Library a layout plan of ADM Library, based on the requirements set out by the Library.
