The IU Main Library is an impressive structure, also sometimes called the "Borg Cube" because of the monolithic textured facade it presents from the east and north. On its west side is an arboretum, where the old stadium (which can be seen in the movie "Breaking Away") once stood. Most of my pictures really have more to do with the arboretum than the library.
