For more than three quarters of a century, Harvard undergraduates have hit the books in the armchairs and study carrels of Lamont Library. Situated in the southeast corner of Harvard Yard, Lamont — which celebrated its 75th anniversary last month — holds the Harvard Library’s main undergraduate collection for the humanities and social sciences. It was constructed in 1949, funded by a donation from 1892 alumnus Thomas W. Lamont.
