Library 'qwgak me rg The library being always open, and the walks and reading-rooms about it free to all Greeks. -Plutarch Formal education applies its pattern to the mind, but only through books does the mind itself, enrich, deepen, apply, modify and develop those patterns in individual life fulfillment. There is no place Where the intellectual tone of a college is more evident than in the library. Oakwood is anxious, therefore, that its library be used for study, and quiet dignified conduct is required of all who enter its portals. The administration strives to add worthwhile volumes with unrelenting regularity for circulation and for reference, and maintains subscriptions to over 200 periodicals and magazines. A group of Well-trained, efficient assistants provides adequate library service and gives necessary help to students seeking information on topics for research. Attention is also given to building up collections of material by and about the Negro. A well-needed library building will be erected this year. Construction will commence during the Spring.
