THE UK LIBRARY SYSTEM
The following is another in a series of descriptive articles
concerning various aspects of the UK Library System.
Engineering Library
The Engineering Library had its beginnings as an office
collection during F. Paul Anderson's tenure as Dean of the
College of Engineering between 1891 and 193M. From these meager
beginnings it grew into a branch library housed in two rooms of
the present Civil Engineering wing of the Engineering Quadrangle.
In 1967 this collection of approximately 25,000 volumes was moved
to its current location on the 3rd floor of Anderson Hall, the
newly built seven—story engineering building. In 1972, the
library expanded into four adjacent classrooms, adding 2,500 sq.
ft. to the library, which now takes up the entire 3rd floor of
Anderson Hall.
In 198M the collection consisted of M8,000 volumes and 600
current periodical subscriptions. It consists primarily of
materials representing the traditional fields of engineering plus
publications in engineering mechanics, nuclear engineering,
biomedical engineering, materials science, transportation, energy
conversion, coal technology, mining, and the environmental
sciences. The library also maintains a microfiche collection of
over M0,000 reports issued by NTIS covering such fields as air
pollution, water pollution, noise pollution, and solid waste
disposal. Since 1978, the library has been collecting NTIS
reports in these additional areas of energy: coal, hydrogen,
nuclear, and solar.
