...Crimson’s Oct. 1 article “Renovation Planned for HBS Library” gives the mistaken impression that the renovation and reconstruction of Baker Library will result mainly in what amounts to a student center. In fact, Harvard Business School’s Spangler Center, which opened in 2001, already meets that need admirably.
