The Michigan Daily-Thursday, September 6, 1979-Page F-11 USED FOR STUD YAND SOCIALIZING: Libraries dot campus (Continued from Page 10) THE AVAILABILITY of, reserve readings "really depends on how many books the professor puts out, how many people have to do the reading, and how long they wait to do the reading," said Aileen Murray, a student assistant at the library. . The UGLI and the Grad both have elaborate electronic detectors at their exits, which makes it virtually im- possible to leave the buildings with library materials that have not been checked out. Librarians report nab- bing "a couple of people a day" trying to escape with unchecked library materials. If a book is returned to most campus libraries by the third day it's overdue, no fine will be assessed. But the fourth day brings a fine of $1 per book, with an additional 25Q fine for each day thereaf- ter. ONE LIBRARIAN said a grace period of a month is usually allowed before a hold credit is placed on a student, which makes virtually any of- ficial University transaction im- possible. UGLI records list an average of 3,000 hold credits at any given time, with almost 2,000 books being turned in late each term. Professors, unlike students, are not charged overdue fines until the book is eight weeks late, at which time they are assessed $1.25 per book. There are many libraries besides the UGLI and the Grad which are available to undergraduate students. The .majestic Law Library is located in the ivy-league-style law quad. Long tables and walls adorned with intricately car- ved woodwork create an atmosphere unlike that of any other campus library. SEVERAL medical libraries provide modern comfort, among them the Den- tistry Library, the Medical Center Library, and the Public Health Library. Daily Photo by JIM KRUZ Many students prefer to find an empty classroom in the Public Health Building across from the Markley residence hall during finals, while others prefer the comforts of the reading room of the Modern Languages Building. Many libraries serve a dual pur- pose-as research tools and as displays of special works or collections. The Clements Library, decorated in a plush, antiquated style, - offers rare books dealing with America's history from the late 15th Century through the Civil War. The special library attracts mainly graduate students from all over the country. The, Museums Library contains exhibits on different living creatures, the Fine Arts Library a special collec- tion on Asian Art, and the Music Library a collection of American Popular Music. Other campus libraries include Ar- chitecture Library, the Bureau of Government Library, the Chemistry- Pharmacy Library, the North Engineering Library, a Mathematics Library, Michigan Historical Collec- tions, a Natural Science-Natural Resources Library, a Physics- Astronomy Library, and a Social Work Library.

Some, such as the Clements Library (top), are used primarily for research, while others also serve as a quiet haven for students searching for a place to study. The Graduate Library, one of the most popular on canpus, features its own "wlid tunnel" (right) under the stacks. The newest campus library, named in honor of former President Gerald Ford, will be opening soon. e~ s The ABCs of: making. thegrade (Continued from Page 1) ded that GPAs may also have begun to "turn back down." EDUCATORS generally attribute the spiraling GPAs to an increased desire among undergraduates to gain ad- mission to graduate and professional schools. But University Graduate School Dean Alfred Sussman cautioned - that graduate school admissions are based on a "complex equation" in whichgrades are only a part. He says "graduate admissions officers also evaluate letters of recommendation, standardized test scores, and previous field experience when considering ap- plicants. On the other end of, the grade spec- trum, however, are students who for one reason or another do not enjoy the healthy GPAs of the majority. In LSA, -the school which admits the bulk of fir- t-year students, a 2.0 term grade point :,i ust be earned if the student is to &main in good academic standing.
