Art in the Library

The James P. Adams Library has several original works of art on permanent exhibit. This guide is intended to showcase the library's art collection and the artists whose works are on display.

The Margaret Taylor Burroughs Collection

Margaret Taylor Burroughs donated this collection of prints to the college in 2006.  The prints in the collection were created by Margaret Burroughs, her husband Bernard Goss, and Mexican artist Leopoldo Mendez.

The collection is installed on the 4th floor of the library, in the corridor adjacent to the Library Director's Office.
