baker-berry library at dartmouth college印象

On our last visit to Hanover we couldn't show our children the library because of the flooding. It's a gorgeous library with a very ivy-leauge feel to it.

Normally I wouldn't be suggesting that some one take a tour of a library, but this is a special one. Behind almost every turn there is a new surprise. Beautiful artwork from the industrial revolution to Dr. Suess. I would definitely get a tour as you don't want to miss anything!

Visitors can stroll through Baker library and view the many interesting historical displays. And the Orozco murals are colorful and fascinating to interpret. There is now a coffee shop in the library and the coffee smell is not conducive to studying!

Nao tem como nao se encantar com a biblioteca e toda a sua estrutura! Foi a primeira da faculdade e fica no centro do campus. E' de tirar o folego como nao so' essa biblioteca mas qualquer uma que voce entrar, tudo e' muito bem cuidado, limpo, silencioso, organizado e o local e' extremamente respeitado pelos alunos e seus visitantes. Estao uns 100 anos a nossa frente!

We were fortunate to stumble into a guided explantion of the Orozco mural in the basement of the library. Fascinating. Well worth making time to go see.

Baker-Berry Library is truly an amazing resource for the community, let alone the students, faculty & staff at Dartmouth College.

The larger than life mural in the lower level of the Baker Library is an important work and a Dartmouth treasure.

This library is open to the public (unlike Harvard's library). There is a coffee/snack shop in the main lobby, comfortable chairs for conversation. Ask a library if you can visit the old stacks. You'll find volumes from LONG ago still on the shelves. If you're into collectible old books, visit the library right in front of Baker Library which is called the Rauner. There isn't much the librarians here can't help you with-it's terrific

One of the most important artworks in the US is in the basement of this library. If you are a fan of Rivera, Siqueros, and Orozco, then get your butt to this library. It has been recently restored, well lit, and there are free materials explaining the significance of this artwork. Its difficult to write about art, GO SEE IT!

I took a tour after 55 years since graduation. Some things are new like digital catalogs, some new wings like the conversion of Webster Hall into a library section. Some things haven't changed, except for some upholstery, like the tower reading room...exactly like it was in the mid-fifties when I spent many a long hour reading and napping. The chairs are the very same. The Orosco Murals still retain their vigorous colors and light and shadows as I remember them and still challenge conventional "wisdom" and practices.Very worthwhile visit.
