Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the history of the University of Michigan Library from its modest beginnings in 1837, when it was little more than a collection of donated books, to its present status as one of the leading research libraries in the world. The author, Raymond C. Davis, a former librarian of the University, provides a detailed account of the library's growth, its acquisitions, and its role in the intellectual life of the university and the broader community. Davis also explores the challenges faced by the library over the years, including the need for new facilities, the impact of new technologies, and the ever-increasing demands of scholars and students. Ultimately, this book is not just a history of a single library but also a reflection on the changing nature of scholarship and the vital role that libraries play in the pursuit of knowledge.
