As an undergraduate, I spent hours in the Mooreland-Spingarn Research Center at Founders Library. This was one of the sparks that inspired me to start my own collection. Back then, everything was done "by hand"; you had to go to the card catalog, fill out a book request form, then wait for a librarian to bring you the requested books. Then you had to return the books to the desk before you left.
