Library I
By SIMON KEONIG
SUM Writer ,
Standing on the edge of the scenic
Horseshoe is a building of tradition, history
and knowledge.
Its tradition is embedded in the past when
it was once the main library of South
Carolina College. History fills the pages of
all the books, periodicals and documents
within the building. Knowledge rests in the
hands of the staff that maintains the daily
flow of information needed to remain active
in providing the University of South
Carolina with the history of this state.
The South Caroliniana Librarv is mm
prised of special collections depicting South
Carolina news and issues from the Colonial
era to today.
The' most unusual aspect of the library is

the circulation room, which was patterned
after the Library of Congress reading room.
The library itself is divided into two main
areas. The circulation room, on the second
floor, contains books, pamphlets,
newspapers and maps. Also, many old and
valuable recordings, pictures and records
can be found in this area. On the ground
floor the manuscript room houses original
letters, papers and documents.
However, not all materials may be
checked out. For example, books located in
the closed stacks must be obtained from a
librarian and read in the circulation room.
This system protects many valuable
collections with only one copy at the library.
The library has more than 2.2 million
manuscripts; 70,000 books and pamphlets;
over 17,000 pictures; in excess of 2,200
maps; and more than 10,500 reels of
microfilm.
