J. Henry Meyer Memorial Library,47, formerly of 560 Escondido Mall, closed on August, 22, 2014 after a dismal seismic safety evaluation. Meyer was dedicated at Leland Stanford Junior University on December 2, 1966. Architect and Stanford alumnus John Carl Warnecke designed the Library. Named for a wealthy banker and supporter of Stanford libraries, Meyer served undergraduates loyally until its official closure. Meyer’s soaring arcades have long served as the backdrop for a mammoth "Beat Cal" sign, a rallying cry for the annualfootball game against the University of California, Berkeley. Meyer Library is survived by its wife Lathrop Library;     children, East    Asia  Library, Academic Computing Services, and 24-hour study space; sister, Cecil H. Green Library; 21 grandchildren through Stanford campus. Services will be held on the rooftop of CERAS on Friday, May 15 at 4:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, Library family requests you celebrate Meyer’s closure with beverages, snacks, and shared memories.
