    $400k is nothing. Accept 10 additional out of state students.

    Mr. Gutierrez convinced me. Keep it open. It is unique.

    I have gone to that library to research api refugee acculturation studies. It was helpful I remember to see what people thought of api refugees in the 60s and on. Please keep it open!

    Such an important collection. $400k is worth it.

    Good! A public school should serve the public not the rich. Let the school pull from their billion dollar endowment if their short on cash

    It's ridiculous students pay so much money for them to shut down a library they pay for?

    They should just be digitizing all of the books during the occupation

    Is saving 400k annually a lot for UC Berkeley? Could they use some of that money towards digitizing the books?

    Why close a repository of knowledge?? Maybe in favor of stupid things that helps no one like marketing, branding and diversity centers no one needs?

    That happened to a couple of libraries at my university. They rather use that highly needed space for something else and leave the main libraries and the science ones

    He makes wonderful points and it should be preserved but no one takes these courses, many schools are getting rid of these types of majors because the truth is there aren't good career opportunities, other than say the job Guitierez has.
    Maybe the main library should have a section just for these books.
    As for repeating history, there's nothing wrong with repeating the good things. These kids have no problem using phones powered by child slaves, ignoring the history they believe shouldn't be repeated.
    Budget cuts are also a direct consequence of the policies the liberals they elected impose. The economy is in shambles and will only get worse.

    Oh God, a PhD student wanting the library to open so his future students can have access to the collections? 😅 The librarians are getting things digitalized for easy access. Go and ask the librarians and see what they think.

    Nobody is interested in anthropology, a study of old pot and pans. Convert it to a medication den.
