University Daily Kansan, April 16, 1982 Page 9 Dvkes Library work on time By TOM HUTTON Staff Reporter KANSAS CITY, Kan—Construction of the $5 million Archie Dykes Library at the University of Kansas Medical Center here is proceeding on schedule and finished. Allan Wiechert, director of facilities planned, said yesterday. "Once a project like this gets off the ground," Wiechert said, "the rest is easy." The library, which was named after former KU Chancellor Archie Dykes last October, has encountered no lengthy construction delays, Wiechert said. Construction is scheduled for completion next December. Wiechert said all the concrete had been poured for the building and the outside structure was nearly finished. The basement, completed in the next two weeks, and roof construction will begin soon, he said. “Once the roof goes on, the interior work starts.” Weichert said. “There’s really not a whole lot of things that can happen until the construction when the roof is on.” WIECHERT SAID construction had been "exceptional," considering the harsh winter months and the short time schedule the University set for it. Wiechert said the construction company, B.B. Anderson of Topeka, had set a schedule that was even more difficult than the University's. The schedules merged as the project grew more involved, he said. Financing for the library's construction came from a $3.7 million allocation from the Kansas Legislature, $1 million from additional Med Center student fees and $250,000 from private donations. When complete, the Dykes Library will house more than 127,000 volumes of material, including 2,000 current medical journals, Earl Farley, direc- tory of the Med Center, at the Med Center, said recently. The Clendening Library, which was named after a popular medical columnist and donor of rare books to the Metropolitan Center's library materials. The library has been seriously overcrowded for several years, Farley said. "We were hanging on to tooth and material into the library," Farley said. THE CLENDENING Library has about 20,000 square feet of space, Farley said. The addition of the Dykes Library will double this amount. Although details are not set yet, the Dykes Library will offer between 400 and 600 seats for library patrons. Most of this seating will be study booths. The library will expand its already extensive use of computers to help trace books, Farley said, once the new building is completed. New regent to address black students Jim E. Dumas, newly appointed member of the Kansas Board of Regents, will be the featured speaker at Day banquet tomorrow night. The Bruce-Smith Award Scholarships will be awarded to a continuing KU student and an incoming freshman during the banquet.
