Harold B. Lee Library
The Harold B. Lee Library at Brigham Young University hosts lecture series designed to promote lifelong learning. Lectures series include the following: The Alice Louise Reynolds Lecture, The House of Learning Lecture, and The Annual Author Lecture Series. Alice Louise Reynolds died of cancer on 5 December 1938. In her memory, and in conjunction with the dedication of the Harold B. Lee Library addition in 1977, the Alice Louise Reynolds Room was named as a memorial and permanent tribute to this remarkable teacher and friend of the library. The Alice Louise Reynolds Lecture Series has been established in her honor to feature prominent guest speakers in literature, bibliography, and public service. It is through the generosity of members of the Alice Louise Reynolds Clubs and other Friends of the Library that the endowment for this annual lectureship has been made possible. Both The House of Learning Lecture Series and The Annual Author Lecture Series are relatively new. "Prepare every needful thing ... even. . .a house of learning. . ." (D & C 88:119) has been The House of Learning Lecture's motto since its first lecture on November 6, 2001. Designed to promote lifelong learning, The House of Learning Lectures are intended to achieve two objectives: to host professors from across the disciplinary spectrum in a forum where ideas may be openly and vigorously discussed, and to remind professors, students, staff and administrators that the library has print collections that aid and encourage the cultivation of the mind, making the library the perfect place for intellectual enlightenment. The Annual Author Lecture is designed to bring authors from different areas to openly discuss writing and their books. This series is designed to encourage interaction between authors and Provo's community, and to promote the community to read. Distinguished lecturers have included Orson Scott Card and Stewart Udall. All lectures are open to the public.
