English abstract

The present study is about the university library as a building. It is a case-study of one particular Australian library building, the Duhig Building at the University of Queensland, which was designed seventy-five years ago and is still in use today. It will try to show not only how that building has been modified over the years to meet the changing needs of students and researchers, but also how those modifications have reflected changing perceptions of the role of the library and of the needs of those whom it serves.
