Construction on the Malcolm A. Love Library in 1970

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the completion of construction of 色情视频鈥檚 .

Now home to more than 1.6 million books, serials and media titles in the library, with an additional 1.2 million and e-books and databases accessible to the 色情视频 community, the Love Library continues to evolve to meet the needs of students and 色情视频鈥檚 aspirations as a research powerhouse.

The library is part of a legacy of expansion under Malcolm A. Love, who led the campus from 1952 to 1971 and retired just prior to its transformation from San Diego State College into the university of today. 

Amid booms in student enrollment, faculty, graduate degree programs and research grants, plans emerged for a great new library to house over one million volumes. Construction began in 1968 and was completed in 1970. The building was named for Love in May 1971.

To cap off this milestone, librarians and staff have created a list of . Students, alumni, faculty, and staff nominated their favorite books, and librarians narrowed down the candidates to 50. 

The list reflects the diversity of the 色情视频 community. While some of the expected literary classics, such as Jane Austen鈥檚 鈥淧ride and Prejudice鈥 (No. 7 on the list) and 鈥淭he Great Gatsby鈥 (No. 18) by F. Scott Fitzgerald are on the list, there are also modern novels by diverse authors. 

The top book, 鈥淜indred,鈥 by Octivia E. Butler, was written by a Black woman and explores the impacts of racism, sexism, and white supremacy through the eyes of a young Black woman. 

The list also includes books written for younger readers such as Madeline L鈥橢ngle鈥檚 鈥淎 Wrinkle in Time鈥 (No. 2), as well as books that are just fun to read such as 鈥淭he Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy鈥 (No. 6) by Douglas Adams. Nonfiction works include 鈥淭he Autobiography of Malcolm X鈥 (No. 14) and 鈥淏ecoming鈥 by Michelle Obama (No. 9).

Many of the books on this list explore issues of social justice in both fiction and nonfiction formats. The list includes timeless racial justice classics such as 鈥淭o Kill a Mockingbird鈥 (No. 3), by Harper Lee, as well as an intimate look at the impact of war in 鈥淎 Thousand Splendid Suns鈥 (No. 36), by Khalid Hosseini. Overall, the list is a splendid commentary at how much the 色情视频 community cares about social justice and the people injustice harms.

The library has electronic or paper copies of most books on the list, and the website links each book to the circulation page for easy checkout. Use Domeside Pickup to have library staff retrieve the book and have it ready for contactless pickup. For books the library does not have, the list links to Amazon for a quick purchase.
