Washington, DC

Greetings from the Nation’s Capital,

The Howard University Library System is undergoing renovations to one of its major branches This renovation will support the physical infrastructure of the university’s new, campus-wide initiative that will position the Howard University PTRC at the epicenter. The “Innovation, Creativity, and Entrepreneurial (ICE)” lab will be collaborative effort between the HU PTRC, the HU School of Communications, and the HU College of Arts and Sciences. This initiative seeks to bridge the gap between the STEM fields, the Humanities fields, and the Social Sciences fields in the realm of business development, copy rights, patents, and trademarks. The demolition for new library branch and the future ICE lab breaks ground in July of 2014, so there will definitely be more information to come!
