This image shows a student speaking with library employee Mrs. Elizabeth "Libby" Williams, wife of Dr. Cratis Williams, Dean of the Graduate School, at the Information Desk in the first Belk Library in the 1970s. The stacks can be seen in the background. The Belk Library was completed in 1968 and opened in 1969.
