Abstract: On June 5, 2010, Jackson Library celebrated sixty years of service to The University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Founding President Charles Duncan McIver once said, “A great library is the very heart of the literary life of a great institution,” — a statement even more true today than it was in the 1890s when the student population numbered several hundred. Today Jackson Library, as part of the University Libraries, serves a student population of approximately 18,000 with a collection of over a million books, more than 47,000 electronic and print journal subscriptions, over 500 electronic databases, and 640,000 federal government documents.
