J. Henry Meyer Memorial Library, Academic library at Stanford University, United States
The J. Henry Meyer Memorial Library extended across four floors, featuring high columns, vaulted ceilings, and expansive windows along its exterior walls.
The facility opened its doors on December 2, 1966, designed by Stanford graduate John Carl Warnecke, and operated until its permanent closure in August 2014.
The fourth floor contained the East Asia Library with substantial Chinese, Japanese, and Korean collections, supporting international research and academic programs.
The building included multiple seminar rooms, a computer cluster, a 24-hour study space, and specialized academic computing services across different levels.
A seismic assessment in 2007 revealed necessary retrofits costing $45 million, leading to the decision to demolish the structure in early 2015.
