Belk Library, first, winter, circa 1970, photo 1

This image shows the front of the first Belk Library, built 1968, at Appalachian State Teachers College (1929-1967) after a snowfall in the early 1970s. The western corner of Watauga Hall, built 1929, can be seen on the left, and Varsity Gym, built 1968, can be seen in the background. The Belk Library was completed in 1968 and opened in 1969. It served as the main campus library until 2005, when it was replaced by the newly constructed Belk Library and Information Commons. It is now known as the Library Classroom Building.
