1941 Brick Higher Libraries Lincoln Nebraska University

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the serene and intellectual atmosphere of the Don L. Love Memorial Library at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in the heart of the American Midwest during the 1940s. The red brick building, constructed in 1941, stands proudly against a backdrop of lush green trees and rolling grasslands, with the American flag flying high atop the library's imposing tower. The Don L. Love Memorial Library was dedicated to the memory of Don L. Love, a prominent Nebraska businessman and philanthropist who believed strongly in the power of higher education. The library, which was expanded in 1966 and renamed Morrison & Taylor Hall in 2013, has been a cornerstone of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's campus for over eight decades. The photograph showcases the library's impressive size and grandeur, with its large windows allowing natural light to filter in and illuminate the stacks of books within. The trees surrounding the library add a sense of tranquility and harmony, creating a picturesque scene that perfectly encapsulates the essence of academic pursuit and the spirit of learning. The 1940s were a time of great change and growth for the United States, with the country emerging from the Great Depression and gearing up for World War II. Amidst this tumultuous period, institutions of higher learning like the University of Nebraska-Lincoln continued to thrive, providing a sanctuary for students to pursue knowledge and expand their horizons. This photograph is a testament to the enduring importance of education and the beauty of the American academic landscape during a pivotal moment in history.
