Morrison Library Fund

One of the architectural treasures of the UC Berkeley campus, Morrison Library — known as “the university’s living room” — is a frozen-in-time space where you can cozy up with a book or magazine or browse a selection of new releases. Morrison Library opened in 1928 as a traditional library reading room, providing an ambient atmosphere for students to take a break from the rigors of academic life. In addition to the circulating collection of newly published popular fiction and nonfiction, the library contains a limited collection of circulating audiobooks, travel books, and newly published poetry books, as well as subscriptions to several popular magazines and a few daily newspapers.
