File contains a floor plan and exterior elevations for the MacDonald Library stacks, which show three different window styles for the east facing wall. There are also some early floor plans for the library indicating room appointments and elevations of bookshelves. Drawings are by both Andrew Cobb and Frank Darling.
Item is a pencil drawing of the north elevation of the Macdonald Library's stack room. Labelled "A2," it is one of four extant drawings of exterior elevations showing window configurations and is signed in the bottom right corner by (Frank) Darling, the consulting architect.
File contains 3 pages of blueline prints of floor plans for a library at Dalhousie University, drawn by C.D. Davison & Company, the architectural firm that designed Dalhousie's Student Union Building in 1967. Undated and stamped "preliminary," the plans indicate a library with three floors. The drawings for floors 2 and 3 are annotated with potential seating and/or stack capacity for social sciences, humanities, rare books, graduate students, research and audio visual users, as well as conceptual drawings of study carrels and audio visual booths.
File comprises a set of plans for the second, third, fourth and fifth floors of the Killam Library, mounted on presentation board with acetate overlays indicating space usages by reference to an unknown key-plan that includes numbers 1-11.
Item is a plan showing a third floor layout of the Killam Library. The base plan includes the perimeter carrel seating and built-in seminar and office rooms; strips of paper illustrating the stack arrangement have been taped to this surface, and the plan is annotated by hand with the letters A, B, G and R.
File contains 2 pages of blackline prints of working designs for a display unit and book cases for the planned Kipling Room in the Killam Library. The drawings include elevations and section details, are stamped "preliminary," numbered S-8 and S-8, and dated 31 March 1969. The Kipling Room ended up remaining in the O.E. Smith wing of the Macdonald Library; it is possible that these furniture plans were used instead for the Morse Room, which was located behind the MacMechan Auditorium.
File contains 11 pages of blueline prints of hand-drawn working designs for Killam Library furnishings, labelled F-100 though F-110, which include initial and revised plans (elevations and section drawings) for: cataloguer and bibliographer's work units; card catalogue units; consultation tables; newspaper storage units; display cases; atlas stands; file tubs; and dictionary stands. Annotations with dates include revisions based on requests by librarians.
