I ' rusrrarion arises often in the reserve sraeks. All hooks on reserve can only he checkeii out for three hours, and there is usually much fisr-clenching rhe night heforc an exam when rhar certain hook is not there. Over 70,000 books are shelvetl in this i.ilirarv, ami West ( ' ampus Library has 825,762. 3. For those who like comfort when rhey study, there i.s rhe Chinese Reading Room upstairs in the Library. Be- sides footstools and easy-chairs the room is beautifully decorated with anti(|ue ( hincsc ornaments and manu- scripts. It is a memorial to James . . I homas, a l)usiness associate of Air. Duke ' s in ( ' hina. east Campus LIBRARY 4. . lan - rimes rhe Library is a mcering place for Easr and West campuses. Study dares help relieve rhe monotony of man - hours of tedious study, as Dot Wbodard hereby proves. Before e. am periods the movies and Hartmann ' s arc forsaken, and the Library becomes the place where one practically has to reserve a sear in advance in order ro get in. 5. The Reference Room contains encyclopedias, bound magazines, inde.x guides, and valuable sources of material on all subjects. Other rooms on the main floor include an art room where paintings are displayed, a magazine room with the latest newspapers and magazines, and a Book Lovers Room which contains lounge chairs such as those in the Chinese Room. 6. The basement is referred to as I he Tombs. Many people prefer to sruds ' in one of rhe lirtle nooks dow n there because of the deadly silence that prevails. How- ever, the basement is used mainly for the storing of books, for a Psycholog - Library for both campuses, and also for a repair shop. It is especially popular in warm weather.
