Hoover Library Renovation

Redefining Hoover Library.

Construction is underway on Hoover’s new information literacy interactive learning classroom, the first project of a planned $3.5 million renovation of all five floors of the library. The State of Maryland  approved a $1.5 million capital grant to McDaniel for renovations of creative learning spaces, however the College must match this grant prior to receiving state funds.

Thanks to an endowed building fund, construction on the new classroom is now under way. The classroom will feature specially designed tables for teaching in the round and technology-enabled spaces that support students’ changing patterns of learning and innovation. Once the entire renovation of the library is completed, Hoover will become students’ destination of choice for lively group study, scholarly discussion, collaboration, team building, academic coaching and quiet study.

“This is the evolution of library and academic support services,” said Hoover Director Jessame Ferguson.
