The Bizzell Memorial Library is a absolutely gorgeous Cherokee Gothic building. The white stone exterior stripes really make the red brick pop. Even every gargoyle is a different creature or person. The building itself is a piece of art. When people visit OU’s campus they make an effort to go see the exquisite library.

However, the building takes on a different persona for the students at OU. I know for me regardless how pretty or artistic it is,  I don’t want to be anywhere near the library.  The inside is dark and cold and void of all happiness. Before I came to OU I use to love to explore the library with my dad but now as a student I would rather stub my toe repeatedly on the coffee table. Once I graduate I’m sure I’ll be able to again see the treasure that is the Bizzell Memorial Library.
