The steps of the U-D Library seem to be zz rather busy place on a beautiful fall afternoon. Here several resecuclzers take five Seats of Learnin The University is a seat of learning that has many seats of learning: the steps of the Library or the Briggs Building . . . the benches in Sacred Heart Square or around the Fisher Fountain . . . the lawn in front of the Chemistry Building . . . a table in the Student Union Building . . . or, some quiet corner of the campus. The Engineering Building, Holden Hall, Smith Radio-TV Studio, the Commerce and Finance Building . . . these are also seats of learning. 12 Each student has his own The tables in the Students Union cafeteria, the empty classrooms, the desk of the student at home . . . these are seats of learning. The table at Leo's after the lunch hour, a seat on a bus, the car in the parking lot . . . these are seats of learning.

The Library now contains over 250,000 volumes It's the heart of the University The Rev. Robert Kearns, S. J., director of the Uni- versity Library. Library Two currents of activity run through the Li- brary, one administrative, the other student. Library Director Fr. Kearns and his staff, in addition to keeping the library in order, are 'continually buying new books to add to the Library's collection of better than 250,000 volumes. Students, every day, each with a task to ac- complish, crowd into the Library. Some are looking for material for a term paper and spend their time searching for books in the card catalog, writing call slips, writing notes while pouring through the books in the reference room. Some come to browse through the new books and periodicals. Some come to spend a free hour between classes in study. And some, with the best of intentions, let the spirit yield and sleep over their open volumes. 14 1? F-vis 5 si, U Qi 5 ' GQ ' ' 1 k u . 1' ri ist . ' 'L Y, li, T . 'LQ ' .4
