The new upper school library took a major step towards completion when the first of several huge, curved, laminated beams was set in place in early February. Additional beams have been added and pre-formed walls are going up daily. The library is sited at the very center of the Saratoga campus. The new library will be nearly twice the size of the old and have a number of new features, including an eBeam-equipped classroom and expanded study tables with task lighting and electricity ports. These improvements follow a watershed year for all library users, including a streamlined Web design customized to each age and curriculum, and a proxy server to allow for single user log-ins to the extensive collection of databases around the clock. Along with changes in the virtual realm, with the opening of the new upper school library, all three campuses will enjoy wireless learning spaces with ceiling-mounted projector systems.
