Columbia's old library, accessible only to students, houses some 2 million items on 9 floors
The old Columbia Library, with its easily recognizable dome, stands in the middle of the campus. Built in 1934, of Italian Renaissance architecture, it is in a way the epicentre of the university. It is equipped with neoclassical columns above which are engraved the names of illustrious philosophers and thinkers: Aristotle, Shakespeare, Plato, Voltaire, Homer. The library houses some 2 million books on nine floors, but unfortunately you will not be able to visit it because it is only accessible to students.
