SUMMARY:Library Milestones | Exhibit
LOCATION:Geisel Library 2nd Floor Southwest\, 9701 Hopkins Drive\, La Joll
 a\, CA 92093
DESCRIPTION:Before the rise of digital publications and licensed electroni
 c resources\, academic libraries measured the size of their collections b
 y the number of physical volumes on their shelves. Reaching a million-vol
 ume milestone was a source of pride and a mark of growth.\n\nThis exhibit
  highlights five titles that mark milestones in the growth of the UC San 
 Diego Library’s physical collections. Together\, they also reflect the ge
 nerosity of donors and support groups who helped build the collections an
 d offer a glimpse into what made a book milestone-worthy at the time.\n\n
 Library Milestones is on view outside of Special Collections & Archives o
 n the 2nd (main) Floor of Geisel Library during the building's open hours
  through Sunday\, December 13\, 2026.\n\nPhoto citation: John Ogilby. Ame
