When in doubt, always check the textbook. Or drag a desk into the stacks to find the answer. (Please don’t move the desks into the stacks.)

Have you seen this #hiddenlibrary sign? This inspirational plaque stood next to the entrance until the 1991 remodel moved the entrance to the north side of the building. It’s actually still there, just currently obscured by the landscaping. (PG 1-122-080, Library entrance plaque - "Here is the knowledge of centuries past that all may come and share today." 1957 Photographer: UI Photo).
This #hiddenlibrary view of the ASUI-Kibbie Activity Center was taken on a snowy day kinda like today from the Library’s 4th floor mail room. The Kibbie “Dome” is home to numerous campus events, including the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival taking place this Friday and Saturday!

UI Library newspaper section, then and now, from shortly after the building opened 60 years ago this month, to the newspaper storage area today. All historical Idaho newspapers have now been transferred to microfilm, rather than what looks like bound up in neat packages, while the current and previous months’ papers are still available for patrons to browse.
