Renovations are being done inside as well as outside, and it’s the Guild’s obligation to assure that the architectural, historic and cultural features of the exterior of the buildings, as well as certain interior features of the Russell Library, will be maintained forever for preservation purposes and to prevent any change of the exterior of the buildings that will significantly impair or interfere with its preservation value.
