Library to house 10 million books by summer
The Bancroft Library, which already houses some impressive collections like the Mark Twain Papers, is nearing another landmark achievement. The Contra Costa Times has an article on the search for what possibly could be the 10 millionth book in Berkeley's collection.
UC Berkeley will become the fourth U.S. university -- and the second public university -- to boast a 10 million-volume library collection. Harvard, which has more than 15 million books, and Yale lead the pack, while the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has 10.2 million.I certainly hope it's not Danielle Steel... *Correction*: As some of you have pointed out, the Bancroft Library does not house 10 million books. The article refers to the books in the UC Berkeley collection.Email This Post! |
