ground floor for students who at
the present time have no place to
study for short periods during the
day. The ground floor also pro
vides for cataloguing space, re
ceiving rooms, and storage space.
Solid walls are being avoided
whenever possible so that future
arrangement of rooms can be
changed whenever the needs arise.
The basement will accommodate a
large check room.
On the first floor will be the
circulation desk, card catalogue,
display spaces, library offices, re
serve reading rooms for the liter
atures and social sciences and for
other sciences and technology. An
other feature will be approximate
ly 170 study cubicles, small spaces
among the stacks for graduate
students and faculty.
The second floor calls for edu
cational reading rooms with ad
joining seminary rooms, a text
book library in which will be found
all the latest textbooks from ele
mentary to college level, furnished
free by the publishers and space
for the state historical library,
room for the legislative reference
bureau, rest room for the library
staff and a treasure room where
valuable books and exhibits will
be kept.
Seminary Rooms.
The third floor is tentatively
divided among seminary and study
rooms for the faculty and for such
other rooms as will be needed
from time to time.
The new library will be the
most expensive building among
those needed at the present time.
The present structure was com
pleted in 1891 when there were
less than 1,000 students enrolled,
The library reading rooms accom
modate about 400 students where
a capacity of 2,000 is needed, while
the fire hazard is too great to per
mit its use for storage of valuable
books. Many of the floors are
probably overloaded beyond the
safety limit.

Between Sosh, Teachers.
The new library, if and when
possible, will probably be located
between Social Sciences and
Teachers college, and will face
north. According to Dean Old
father, the first proposed unit will
be 169 feet in length and 209 feet
in width, with three stories and a
basement. Proposed plans allow
for future expansion to the south,
with the possibility of erecting
administrative offices in another
unit fating R st. and joining the
new library. The present admin
istration building is inadequate in
sizo.
The university library owns
30fi,000 volumes at the present
time. The old building is only
capable of housing 110,000 books.
Dean Oldfather declared the new
building would accommodate at
least 470,000 volumes. Generous

vided at the rear of three floors.
