When you&#8217;ve got a few spare minutes, check out the student art at Herrick. Most of the library&#8217;s student art is in the Learning Commons, and in the top floor hallway between the Children&#8217;s room and the East Wing (toward Alumni Hall.) Most pieces are identified by the name and graduation year of the artist.
