Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Library
Open spaces within the library will create a welcoming atmosphere. View floor plans.
Yale's Cross Campus Library was a mainstay for the academic pursuits of Yale undergraduate and graduate students since its opening in 1971. After thirty-five years of continuous service, this popular hub of learning underwent a comprehensive revitalization beginning in 2004 and emerged transformed into the Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Library. In addition to creating a handsome, light-filled environment, the Bass Library introduces a new concept in study space specifically designed for the types of learning and research activities typical of today’s students. The Bass Library features areas for independent study, group study, and interaction with librarians and faculty, as well as flexible gathering spaces where the most up-to-date technology will be available for collaborative study.
We are enormously grateful to Anne T. and Robert M. Bass ’71, who stepped forward with a generous gift to help fund this major renovation. We also wish to thank the many other alumni and friends who joined the Basses in helping to meet a $13 million renewal challenge.
