North side of the Hatcher Graduate Library, taken from the Diag.

The main library on the Diag, named after former U of Michigan president Harlan Hatcher.

Collections by floor:

• 2 North: Reading room
• 2 South: Serials, microfilms, connector to the Undergraduate Library
• 3 North: Children's Books
• 7 South: Special Collections, including the Labadie Collection
• 8 South: Map Library

A warning to new users is that the Hatcher building actually combines two structures, one older and one newer, with the floors at different heights -- so there is a confusing proliferation of levels 1A, 1B, 2 North, and so on. It is well worth the trouble to consult a map or talk with a librarian before heading into the stacks.

Many Ann Arbor residents have fond memories of days spent wandering in the dusty stacks.
