"The new facility, which combines a library with a learning-resource center, was designed to be the centerpiece of California's oldest continuously operating community college, founded in 1913. The design reflects the Spanish and Moorish influences of the college's oldest buildings. The library portion of the facility fronts the main quadrangle and includes a two-story grand lobby connecting the central computer commons to the quieter reading areas and study rooms upstairs. The learning resource center, meanwhile, is an interdisciplinary study and tutorial center for the college. Flexibility is built into the facility to allow for future changes in teaching practices and technology. " — Chronicle of Higher Education
