Donation Made to University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign Library

Camiros, Ltd. recently donated 2,200 planning books and reports to the UIUC Funk Library which holds its City Planning and Landscape Architecture collection. Originally assembled by the firm as a resource for its staff and clients, the library represents a major portion of the firm’s forty year collection of city plans and other documents addressing transportation, urban design, preservation, zoning, economic development, social welfare, and housing.

Melody Allison, Information Services Librarian and Liaison to the Departments of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning noted that “this gift will substantially add unique titles to our extensive collection of urban and regional plans and make an invaluable contribution to resources for scholarship for planning scholars and community planners.”
