When complete, the building project will make the Jones Library one of the most climate-friendly buildings in Amherst, restoring most of the original 1928 building, expanding programming space to meet current and emerging needs, while improving the layout to be fully accessible for people with disabilities and more functional for everyone.

    Proceeds from this event support the Jones Library's National Endowment for the Humanities Challenge Grant (CHA-292057) and will be used to match and expend for the approved purposes of this award.
