Youngweon Lee 1

columbia library (as in the whole library system) is one of the biggest libraries in the nation by the number of books in possession did you know
isnt it wild that there is literally one full time staffer at night in the entire library
ms mrkich also said some students might go all 4 years without checking out a single book and i think that's a huge fuckin loss
no shenanigans in the stacks pls
personally i dont understand why yall would wanna be in the stacks that late lol
stacks safety
