Design
Mark Lanier designed the library by combining his favorite architectural features from the libraries in and around the University of Oxford. Adjacent to the library is the Stone Chapel, a replica of a 500 A.D. Byzantine chapel. The chapel’s ceilings feature scenes from the Bible painted by Texas artist Richard McCluskey. He also painted the ceiling of the library’s main hall.
