Type of Project: |
Refurbishment. The basis for the decision was an identified need on campus to provide a social learning environment, and also in the light of some poor national student survey (NSS) results around library space and provision. |
Start/End Date: |
28th April 2008 to 13th October 2008 |
What could have been improved? What lessons have been learned?
Too early to judge what could have been improved, although some areas are showing some signs of wear already (after 6 months). There were some lessons around the way the project was managed but these were largely particular to the timescale of this project. One lesson would be to plan and cost well in advance of the start date for the works, and double check everything right down to the measurements of the building.
