Combining Form, Function and Elegance Atop the Union University Library in Jackson, Tenn.
Founded in 1823, the academic program at Union University has been ranked “One of the top tier institutions in the Southern Region” by U.S. News & World Report for the past 19 years. Dedicated to an “Excellence-driven, Christ-centered, people-focused, and future-directed" curriculum, the Jackson, Tenn-based institution has spent nearly $120 million on campus facilities within the past decade alone.
Among these projects was the design and build of a new three-story, 53,616-square-foot academic center featuring expanded library holdings, study and meeting rooms, administration offices and archives. Designed by TLM Associates with H&M Construction as the lead contractor, the new library named “The Logos,” or Greek for “the word,” doubled the size of the college’s previous library and now serves as a state-of-the-art resource for the college’s 21st century academic community.
