Thursday, September 5, 1974 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Study havens abound Page Eleven r in Univ By BILL HEENAN Before you adjust that stereo knob, remember that six term papers, 3,000 pages of assigned reading, and a semester project are due tomorrow. Don't panic though - the University pro- vides 26 libraries where you can wring out your brain. Two such institutions t h a t you will eventually confront are the Graduate and Undergrad- uate (UGLI) Libraries. What the latter lacks in a sterile, get- down-and study atmosphere, the former possesses in abundance. DESPITE THE grad library's maze of dead-end corridors and musty book stacks that baffle both underclasspeople and grads alike, this library should be your first research stop., The Grad (or Harlan Hatcher Library) serves as an all-en- compassing referral service, list- ing the titles and locations of all 2.5 million volumes in t h e __.,, University Library system. In addition, the Graduate Lib- rary provides an inter-library lending service which borrows literature from non-University sources on request. rersity l that all roads eventually lead to the card catalog room. The grad library contains three sets of "stacks" - east, south and west. Because all three sections possess separate stairways and elevators, the only link between them is the card catalog, which is located on the second floor. THE EAST and west stacks, which comprise the older part of the building, are characterized by narrow, dimly lit passages which feature scads of dusty, archaic volumes - some of which are over a hundred years old. The more modern south stacks feature rows upon rows of white anesceptic cubicles known as study carrells. The newer addi- tion also houses the rare books collection and the map room which contains over 130,000 chaits. You will either fall in love with the less imposing U n d e r- gradu ate Library and start camping there till the e a rly hours of the morning or, you will seek less hectic surround- ings. fl.4YUUcannt tnd acat- TH UGI, wichhouss a braries regularly. Reserve books a r e required course readings which are usually only let out for a four hour period. For specialized work, or to break the UGLI/Grad mono- tony, try one of the many other University libraries. The Law Library, which is open to all students feature a so-quiet-you-can-hear-a-pin-drop atmosphere. The hanging chan- deliers, vaulted ceiling and or- nate gothic architecture give this study haven a church-like atmosphere. THE CLEMENTS Library,' which adjoins both the UGLI and the Grad Library is more of a museum than a reference source. Because the Clements Library features manuscripts, displays and newspapers covering th e first 365 years of U.S. history, you can quickly find an excuse not to study there. Also, don't neglect the off- the-beaten-path study facilities in the Union, League and dormi- tory basements. An especially plush study haven is the Rack- ham lounge in the grad school. Sink into an easy chair,. relax, put your feeteup and drift off while contemplating Byzantine Art, diplomatic history or great Russian poets . . .

Modeled after the "Nader's Raiders", the Public Interest Research Group in Michigan (PIRGIM) was established at the University in 1972, following a student referendum. BILLING ITSELF as a social change organization, the group is funded by students during registration who voluntarily choose membership in the organization for $1.50 per semester. Last; year, PIRGIM concentrated its efforts on investigating such topics as nuclear waste transportation, toy safety, the hear- ing aid market, and local median rent levels. In a report entitled "Fallout on the Freeway," PIRGIM member Marion Anderson detailed the possibilities of a nuclear waste carrier being involved in a vehicular accident and the subsequent probabilities of radioactive material escaping fromI the lead-encased casks. ACCORDING TO the report, not only are the casks poorly inspected at time, but a vehicular accident involving fire might cause severe structural damage to the casks - possibly causing the release of the radioactive poison. Last December, PIRGIM also, conducted a thorough pre- holiday investigation of toy safety in Michigan-scouring toy storesall over the state. Their conclusion: holiday shoppers are still unprotected from "negligent profit-minded toy manufacturers" who produce flam- mable doll clothing, toxic model-engine fuel, and various sharp- edged playthings. PIRGIM OPERATES on the energy of student volunteers and a full-time staff located at the Lansing headquarter. The Lan- sing staff works pear-round, devoting attention to projects to which students cannot involve themselves in full time. The organization welcomes all suggestions for new investi- gations and encourages students to visit the PIRGIM office of the second floor of the Michigan Union to either volunteer their services or simply to acquaint themselves with the group's activities. -Books about being, doing and living -600 Posters to celebrate lifej -Cards like you have never seen 0S 1ooksore 1205 S.
