Institute for Computing, Information and Cognitive Systems
The Institute for Computing, Information and Cognitive Systems (ICICS) project was initiated in 2001 through the support of the Canadian Foundation of Innovation (CFI) and the British Columbia Knowledge Development Fund (BCKDF). The project was designed to strengthen and create new interdisciplinary research links between computer science, electrical, computer and mechanical engineering, medicine and health care, educational technology, psychology, commerce, process industries and utility systems. The Computer Science Addition (CS) was originally planned as a phased future addition to the ICICS project. Due to the approval of Doubling The Opportunity funding in October 2002, the design of this addition was accelerated to meet the schedule of the ICICS project, both of which were fast-tracked. Both of the projects are directly connected to the existing CICSR building. This proximity allows the Computer Science Department to operate more efficiently and promote dynamic interaction among the students and staff. It also provides superior high-speed reliable connectivity as well as convenient access for users with no compromise on security.
Irving K Barber Learning Centre
The Irving K. Barber Learning Centre represents a significant investment in rebuilding and expanding the historic Main Library. In its original state, the building was confusing to navigate, seismically unsafe, and unable to address the service needs of Library users and staff. The original structure consists of the 'heritage core' built in 1925 and three wings (north, south and east) that were added over the years. The heritage core is a landmark piece of campus architecture that serves as the physical and symbolic center of UBC. It was retained and renovated to current building code standards. The substandard wings were demolished and rebuilt as new construction in such a manner as to frame the original 1925 core. Approximately 46,483 sq.ft. of the 'heritage core' remained, and approximately 193,303 sq.ft. of new building was reconstructed. Integrated into the building is a state of the art "Automatic Storage & Retrieval System". One of only a handful in Canada, this system uses integrated software control to provide a fully automated document archival. The system operates in a controlled environment that has the proper humidity and temperature, and is free of dust and other contaminates to preserve the library holdings.
