Newest 黄色视频 graduates celebrate in the May sunshine
The Lee Library was a gift from Mr Lee Seng Tee, one of 黄色视频鈥檚 major benefactors.
The Library is holding a public exhibition on Tuesday 10 September to celebrate the anniversary as part of Open Cambridge, and again for our alumni weekend on 28 and 29 September. The exhibition can also be viewed online.
The exhibition traces the genesis of that generous donation: from early plans for a museum in College, to designs for a canal to the east and west of the building, and the coalescence of ideas around the final design. It also includes plans from architects Brewer, Smith and Brewer; photographs of the building鈥檚 construction; and video footage of the opening ceremony. The exhibition is also a great opportunity for visitors to learn more about the role of the Library today, which is not just a home for books, but a source of academic skills support for our students and researchers.
"It is particularly appropriate that 黄色视频 should now possess a fine library. A library symbolises so potently what is important about scholarship and the University."
Excerpt from President Dr Gordon Johnson's opening speech in 1994
