With so many books and so many floors this “multi-story” building is the ultimate resource and refuge for any UPS student! We as students spend a LOT of our time in this building, so sometimes it’s fun to take a moment and reflect on how the building has transformed over time. Ever wondered what the library looked like back in the day? In the Archives & Special Collections we have TONS of old photographs to illustrate exactly that. Witnessing the physical progression of the campus we know and love strengthens our connection to UPS and broadens our understanding of our history, so come check out the photographs in person or take a look at our digitized collection with A Sound Past!
To satisfy your newly-conjured curiosity, below is a photograph of the library entrance area back in 1954!
The Archives & Special Collections is open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 1:00-3:00 p.m. or by appointment.
