positions as school librarians and for intermediate positions in public libraries. The
program includes a graduate major leading to the master's degree.
The department also offers a service course to acquaint students with the resources
of the University Library and to aid them in the use of these resources.
Unified Facilities. The library collections at the state institutions of higher
education in Oregon have been developed to meet special needs on each campus;
but the book stock of the libraries, as property of the state, circulates freely to permit
the fullest use of all books. The library facilities of the several institutions are
coordinated through a State System director of libraries. The director is also
librarian of Oregon State University, Corvallis, where the central offices of the
library system are located. An author list of books in the Oregon State University
Library is maintained in the University of Oregon Library.
Museums and Collections

The Museum of Art, housing the Murray Warner Collection of Oriental Art
and other University art collections, was erected in 1930. The building and the
garden court adjoining it, both dedicated to the memory of Prince Lucien Campbell,
fourth president of the University, were financed through gifts.
The Warner Collection was given to the University in 1921 by Mrs. Gertrude
Bass Warner as a memorial to her husband, Major Murray Warner, with whom
she had been collecting works of Oriental art from the time of their marriage in
China in 1904 until his death in 1920. Mrs. Warner continued until her death in
1951 to augment and improve the collection and direct its exhibition. She also
established a museum reference library for studies in Oriental art; the collection
is now known as the Gertrude Bass Warner Memorial Library.
The Murray Warner Collection includes 3,196 accessioned objects, representing
principally the cultures of China and Japan, but including some works of art
from Korea, Cambodia, Mongolia, and Russia.
The first-floor galleries of the Museum of Art are reserved for the showing
of traveling exhibitions, the display of special study material, and exhibitions of
