Management School Library Reading Room

Contemporary materials and color palates, crisp furniture, and interactive technology come together to create a professional, modern library atmosphere for Cornell University’s Johnson Graduate School of Management (JGSM).

The space is one of the busiest locations in JGSM, open during staffed hours to anyone, and 24/7 to the JGSM community. A wide variety of contemporary seating offer options for everyone, including places here students can engage in quiet study and staff can provide high levels of service, highly desirable counter seating, as well as soft seating areas throughout.

The interior design cues borrowed from corporate firms resulted in a dynamic space that has strong visual appeal for current students, prospective students, visitors, and donors. When approaching the Management Library, the newly renovated space signals to visitors that they are entering the front door of a top-ranked business school.
