2025 marks the 100th year of Iowa State University’s beloved Parks Library.
The University Library has been the heart of Iowa State since it first welcomed students in 1869, and students have been the pulse of Parks Library from its opening day on January 6, 1925.
In celebration of 100 years of discovery, exploration, and collaboration, Parks Library will host a panel with Hilary Seo, dean of the University Library, and Sydney Marshall and Alison Ranniger Van Zante from University Museums, and Paul Mankins, FAIA, LEED AP, founder and consulting principal at Substance Architecture, to discuss the roles of art, architecture, and innovation over the past 100 years at Parks Library.
