NOTES: The original university buildings date from 1967. In 1997 Foster & Partners won a competition for the restoration of old buildings and the construction of a new library. Completed in 2003, the library has an elliptical shape ground plan covered by a curved double-skin shell of alternating metal and glass panels.
