Located in Ithaca, NY the John M. Olin Library at Cornell University houses a collection of resources for social sciences, humanities, engineering and physical sciences majors. The library holds nearly 2,000,000 print volumes, 2,000,000 microforms, and 650,000 maps. These offerings are meant to support not only the students on the campus, but also local, national, and international researchers. The library also houses rare and manuscript collections and reference materials.

One of the main pride points for this location is how well kept the materials are. To keep the various media and books in their best physical condition, the library environments must be kept properly pressurized to avoid excessive humidity buildup which could potentially destroy years of historical books and records. Various Paragon Airflow Measurement Systems were installed in the HVAC system to control the pressure within building. The use of Paragon’s highly accurate Airflow Measurement Systems also ensures that the building keeps a healthy level of indoor air quality for the occupants.
