N
by Alex
I think of this as a sort of light, linen yellow. Daffodil. If that’s a color. I know where N is on the second floor of Hamilton, but to be honest there is only one thing that I remember (I think) about it: this is the place where, for god knows what reason, they store copies of Public Culture. I think this section is architecture and photography and… journals founded by Arjun Appadurai. Actually now that I think of it at one point while looking for Public Culture I found a bunch of fun books about/from the San Francisco Situationalist movement back in the late 70s. That was fun. I guess collage, public art, thus Public Culture goes in N.
All the art books are in N…
It’s one of the few parts of the library I’ve grown familiar enough with to just go straight there and have a fairly good sense of where in the Ns to find Chinese painting or Japanese prints or whatever, without looking up call numbers first.
Not sure about M, though. I haven’t been over there ^_^
