Among the first examples of Beaux-Arts architecture in Canada, the former Notre-Dame Congregation chapel in Montréal is now the Dawson college library.
This room inside the English-language Marianopolis college in Montréal again welcomes its library after serving as a chapel for a religious congregation.
Long hidden behind drab ceiling tiles, the unveiling of the former chapel at Collège Jean-de-Brébeuf in Montréal in 2004 also marked the renaissance of one of the oldest libraries on the continent.
The library at Cégep de la Pocatière blends state-of-the-art equipment with mid-century elegance.
