Appreciation towards SHL for providing the following description:

成立于1495年的阿伯丁大学是世界上第五古老的英语大学，大学拥有25万册图书和手稿。新的大学图书馆服务14000名学生，面积达到15500平方米，有档案，历史收藏，善本阅读等空间。

一个连接大学和城市并成为大学东西轴线西端起始的新公共广场也是这个设计的一部分。这个广场增加了大学和周边社区的凝聚力。

设计明朗，招人喜欢。休息室和咖啡厅层回定期举办展览，研讨会还有诗歌朗诵。中央的挑空穿越8层，直达屋顶，其有机的形式与外表干净轮廓体量形成鲜明对比。

建筑设计考虑到减少长期运行成本以及能源损耗。绝缘层和高性能玻璃组成不规则外表皮，白天反射阳光，夜间透出光亮，成为区域的发光标识。这个图书馆新馆将会是大学和Aberdeen区域的汇集地和文化中心。

University of Aberdeen New Library/
Aberdeen/Scotland/

The University of Aberdeen is the fifth oldest English-language university in the world. It was established in 1495 and it houses over a quarter of a million books and manuscripts. The new library serves a community of 14,000 students. The 15,500 square metres of floor-space accommodates 1,200 reading spaces alongside archives, historical collections and a rare books reading room.

A new public square is an integral part of the design, linking the University and the city and forming the west end of an east-west axis across the University campus. The Academic Square will generate a sense of cohesion between the University and the surrounding community.

The library will be positioned on a base of Scottish stone, and it is designed to be welcoming. The ground floor with lounge and café areas will host regular exhibitions, seminars and poetry readings. The atrium’s vast spiralling volume connects all eight storeys, and with its sweeping contours and organic form, this space contrasts with the clean cut exterior profile.

The building is designed to minimise long term running costs and energy use. Consisting of an irregular pattern of insulated panels and high performance glazing, the façade will shimmer during the day and glow softly at night, creating a luminous landmark for Aberdeen. Aberdeen University New Library will be both a meeting place and a cultural centre for the University and the wider Aberdeen community.

Sustainability
Energy
Photo voltaic cells are to be located on the roof and will supplement the building’s electricity requirements.

Water
A water recycling system will be utilised to collect and store rainfall from the roof. The rain water will be recycled for use in lavatories.

Ventilation
A green displacement ventilation system will be used to save energy. For example, the system supplies air at 18-19° C, thus obviating the need for mechanical cooling for a significant period of the year, that is, whenever external temperatures are less than 17-18° C.
System pressure drops are much lower than in conventional fan coil unit systems, and this permits the use of far smaller fans to circulate air through the system. Temperature stratification allows for the conditioning of the occupied zone only, and in this way energy is not wasted in conditioning the unoccupied zone directly beneath the ceiling.

Infrastructure
The university is developing a traffic plan with an emphasis on sustainability. This will generally encourage the use of sustainable transport systems rather than cars – for example cycling and buses. Facilities such as showers for staff cycling to work will be provided.

Certification
The project has achieved a BREEAM Excellent rating.

Light
All working environments will be generously day-lit. Through the use of high performance glazing, the amount of solar gain and heat loss will be kept to a minimum. The ratio of glass to solid panel on the internal elevations will be approximately 50 percent.

Economy
The building’s design will minimise long term running costs and significantly reduce the scheme’s carbon footprint.
