EMI's partnership with GSAM began in late 2013, when a team of civil engineers were requested to come and resolve some water issues on site. Since then, various teams have visited the site and worked on multiple buildings and site developments. 

The latest building to finish is the Library block. It is situated between the existing Primary block and the future Secondary block, as it will be used by children in both these blocks.

The Library block is designed to include a large computer lab and library spaces for both Primary and Secondary children. The designed building is only one storey high, with higher ceiling, to keep the spaces below cool. It also has a second metal sloping roof to keep the rain out.
