BCC Invites Community Input on Library Renaming
PITTSFIELD, MA – Berkshire Community College (BCC) is inviting students, alumni, employees,
and community members to take part in the College's ongoing library renaming process.
As a community-centered institution, BCC values broad input and encourages the public
to help shape the future identity of this important campus space.
As part of the process, BCC will host a virtual feedback session to gather community
perspectives on a short list of proposed library names.

During the session, members of the Library Naming Task Force will present a curated
list of name suggestions developed after reviewing submissions from students, faculty,
staff, and alumni. Participants will have the opportunity to provide feedback on the
proposed names, which will be used to refine the list before it is presented to BCC
President Ellen Kennedy.
Following this review, one recommended name will advance through the College's Shared
Governance process and, pending approval, move forward to the Berkshire Community
College Board of Trustees and state-level review.
Additional details, including registration information for the virtual session, will
be shared in the coming weeks. Community members are encouraged to participate and
lend their voices to this important decision impacting the future of the BCC Library.
