Bibliotheca Alexandrina: la nuova biblioteca di Alessandria d'Egitto

Abstract

The new library of Alexandria is meant to create a new center of discussion and debate for the region of the Eastern Mediterranean, rekindling its ancient roots. The design of the building will be presented by one of the project s original designers who will outline the initial thoughts regarding its aesthetic, functional and philosophical foundations and the realization of these and other developments made during its lifetime.

After nearly 30 years of discussion and over 12 years of planning and construction the new Bibliotheca Alexandrina will formally open in October of 2002. The project has passed through many levels of political intrigue throughout its recent and former life. A brief discussion of the history and future of this project will be presented in parallel with a presentation of the completed design. Additionally a general introduction regarding the library s role in contemporary library planning and use will be made placing the new project in perspective when it opens its doors formally to the public.

The talk will last circa 1 hour and will include both a digital slide presentation and a short DVD film.
