	ArchitectureWeek - Design - Current Issues in College Libraries - 2003.0709
		Planning library circulation and the sequence and adjacency of program components is driven by several key concerns: controlled access and security, overall orientation and ease of wayfinding, ready access by users to most frequented facilities, and efficient movement of staff to all service areas.
		In the Trinity College Library at Cambridge, by Sir Christopher Wren, as well as in the Phillips Exeter Academy Library by Louis Kahn, the spatial order of the library has not only enhanced its use, but has represented the ordering of human knowledge that is at the heart of the library's meaning.
		The campus library of the future may be less the subject of debate now than it was a few years ago, at least in terms of the impact of new technology.

		Exeter is extremely challenging academically, which I loved, but of course I couldn't understand everything the first time, and my teachers were always there to look over another draft of a paper or test corrections.

		The camera captures the soaring central nave of the father's library at Phillips Exeter Academy; but it also lingers on the anti-sublime, like the yarmulke that keeps blowing off the son's head (his mother, landscape architect Harriet Pattison, is not Jewish) as he stands before the Western Wall in Jerusalem.
		And each interview with the women and children he disappointed lays bare the wounds time will not heal.
