Latest design and floor plans for the redesign of the Campbell Library building layout
Dear Rowan University,
This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form. Please acknowledge receipt of this message.
Records requested:
Digital copies of the latest version of the design plans (floor plans and/or architectural plans) for the proposed Campbell Library building update on the Glassboro campus being supplied by your architectural vendor.
Yours faithfully,
Diamond Networking Solutions LLC
Good morning,
Please accept this as a response to your May 20, 2022 OPRA request wherein you sought "copies of the latest version of the design plans (floor plans and/or architectural plans) for the proposed Campbell library." As you are aware, OPRA allows seven (7) business days for a response. This is the fourth (4th) business day.
Rowan University is denying your request as it seeks information that would reveal security measures which, if disclosed, would create a risk to the safety of persons, property, electronic data or software and is therefore exempted from OPRA under N.J.S.A. 47:1A-11. Specifically, Rowan University does not release any architectural plans, floor plans, schematics, etc. for its buildings or properties due to security concerns for the safety of our students, faculty and staff should those plans become public. Such plans contain information regarding building systems, escape routes, and layout of non-public areas which could aid in the planning of harm to people or property.
If you have any questions and/or comments, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time.
Regards,
Elyse

Dear Crawford, Elyse G,
Thank you for your response. As I stated in my separate open request, I recently attended a graduation ceremony on your campus for a family member who's a student. During that visit we entered the public student center. Posted on the wall publicly were the floor layouts for the agora project. That is what I am requesting a copy of, the floor layouts that are suitable to be released to the public except for the library project in this case not the agora project. If I did not use the correct terminology in my original request for this document I apologize and hereby update my request.
Yours sincerely,
Diamond Networking Solutions LLC
Understood. I will get you a copy of what is publicly posted in the Student Center.

Good afternoon,
Under separate cover, I responded to your OPRA request regarding the Agora Project. Please note that in addition to the denial below, I would like to note that there are no current plans developed for the Campbell Library. Rowan is in the feasibility study phase of the Project.
Regards,
Elyse
