Either or is fine. The library being freshly renovated would probably be a good 'magnetic' for people in the area as a safe haven, or it could just be a big building that looks a lot safer than where you are currently.
You know the worst part? I just had a super interesting idea for a different character.
Shelving that shit for possible future use. I think you'd like it, in so much as his weaknesses, and he fits into the "served, but isn't a Green Beret" archetype of military characters; enough knowledge to be useful and fulfill a role, but not infallible.
Provided one opportunity for a mad dash, hope it wasn't too overreaching or meta-ish. I really didn't see any other way for a fat bastard like Vincent to make it through the campus.
After today I'm away for two weeks so my character will be knocked out for an extended period of time. Enjoy the roleplaying and keep onto it until I get back, I want to see this still going !
