GLEE - Green library environment and legislation

GLEE is the University of Bradford’s latest Student Experience enhancement project that has not only radically improved the old, inefficient learning environment of the City Campus Library but also provided a low carbon refurbishment in tandem.

This project is a win-win-win-win-win. It has provided a 21st century library for the University and a vastly improved learning and student experience. The space is flexible and will cope well with changes to libraries use.

Carbon and utility savings are huge and overall it provides a very relevant template for the sector. Bradford show that refurbishments can be delivered cheaply, quickly and with a minimum of disruption to service users.

The GLEE programme put people at the centre of the process. The provision of a modern space has aided behaviour issues; a bi-product through a greater level of respect, less litter and noise issues.
