Information Commons to add 18,000 square feet to Kimbel Library
Coastal Carolina University's Board of Trustees recently approved naming the proposed Information Commons addition to Kimbel Library in honor of the Rebecca R. Bryan Family. The late Miss Bryan, who died in 1999, bequeathed more than $1.8 million to Coastal Carolina University for building projects relating to humanities programs. The Information Commons will add an 18,000-square-foot area to Kimbel Library that will serve as a study/reference/tutorial center for students.The $6 million project, which also includes renovation of the front entrance and interior improvements, is expected to be completed by June 2011.
