The American Institute of Architects St. Louis Chapter is introducing The Resource Center @ AIA St. Louis; a complete information center to connect the design professional with product manufacturers and distributors in an educational environment. TRC@AIA-STL will be a place for architects, designers, contractors and clients to learn more about products, services and each other._______________________________________________________________We know that local firms are reducing their in-house libraries. We are know that product representatives that it can be challenging to call on decision makers at firms. TRC@AIA-STL has been developed to meet both of these needs; it will serve as a forum to connect, share knowledge, and network with designers, builders, and each other. We hope to open in late June or early July 2019._______________________________________________________________TRC@AIA-STL will be funded by annual memberships purchased by product manufacturers and representatives. Membership will be offered on an annual basis for $500 per product line. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive materials library and knowledge collective to the design and construction community to visit at no charge.
