The Templeman Library was awarded as a finalist in the ‘Medium and Large Libraries’ category within the SCONUL Library Design Awards 2019.
The Templeman Library sits at the heart of the Canterbury campus and has been transformed to become a flagship 21st century learning environment comprising a new extension and extensive refurbishment of the existing building, together demonstrating new standards for renewal of 1960’s university buildings.
The 5,400m2 extension provides a lecture theatre, seminar, exhibition, archive, conference, study and café spaces. The building has received new welcome hall, windows and facade.
The SCONUL Library Design Awards showcase and celebrate the very best in recent academic library design in the UK and Ireland.

Well deserved, I know a lot of effort and enthusiasm went in to making this a great building and a great place to study.
