STREET FLOOR TopOfNew Law School Is Library By BARBARA McSWAIN As you walk into the library ol the new university .law school the i first thing you notice is the atmos phere of ifitense concentration, Everybody seems to be completel3 engrossed in his work. Books containing South Caro. lina reports and other law books surround the green walls. The 1i. brarian's desk is situated in the center of the room. Miss Saral Leverette or her assistant, Miss Jean Sims, sits here to assist the students. The librarian's offices are on either side of the desk. Bacli of the desk is the stack room. Here more books are kept. "It's wonderful to have room enough for all our books at last,' Miss Leverette said. "In the old law school we kept part of them in McIissick library, part in pro fessors' offices and the rest stored in the library." Some of the books are kept in professors' offices for reference and some are kept in the faculty library but all are avail able to students. The color scheme of the library is the same as the rest of the school, blendings of green on the walls with chalk white ceilings. Modern fluorescent lights and linoleum tile floors are used. A unique feature of the library is jn the mezzanine floor. Fifteen study rooms have been provided for students' use. The rooms are equipped with double desks and typewriters. Each one has a win dow and a private door entering onto the mezzanine. "The advantage of these rooms," Miss Sims said, "is that the stu dents can work together on things like practice cases which they couldn't do in the old library." She smilingly added that "the study rooms make good visiting rooms, too, but the librarians don't know about that." Besides the study room carrells are provided on the main floor be hind the stacks. To use these car rells students must have permis sion and can use them for only a certain period. New tables and chairs fill the downstairs main floor. A rack is provided for magazines. The law library does not subscribe to popu lar magazines, but Dean Samuel L. Prince brings them from'his home to the library. "The library is a pleasure to wvork and study in now," one stu dent commented. "Being in a new and miodern building makes all the difference in the world." s Shop The. finest gabardine sports for I Smooth, rugged, washa tailored with Arrow's tradit Bek's .. . your headquarte Columbia! .
