UBC Bookstacks

The bookstacks in the dungeons of the old UBC Main Library before it was torn down and rebuilt around 2007. These bookstacks no longer exist, and have been replaced by a robotic book retrieval system after $10,000,000 was donated to the library by Irving K. Barber.

 

Few people ventured into the depths of Main Library. Myths of killings and ghosts and the fear of getting lost inside the bookstacks deterred most students.
