hey there!
ReplyDeleteI found a bit of info on scholes library- right on the AU website.
It was first established in 1947 to house the library for the NYSCC (presumably after it was determined that Harder Hall was not structurally sound enough to bear the load?). Named after a notable glass scientist, Samuel R. Scholes, it now contains 100,000 bound volumes, 60,000 research reports, 160,000 slides, and "a variety of other materials".
