Supporting the Architecture Research Center (ARC)

The Architecture Research Center (ARC) welcomes contributions no matter what the amount. Due to space constraints, the University’s architecture collections are housed between two locations, the Otto G. Richter Library and the School of Architecture library. The School’s modestly sized library facility allows students and faculty use of a limited collection in the classroom and studio. Visit the School of Architecture site for more information on giving your support.
