The Charles B. Sears Law Library, located on the second through seventh floors of O’Brian Hall is my favorite place on UB’s entire north/south campus. Libraries symbolize sophistication, intelligence, new endeavors, knowledge, and wisdom. While spending time inside the Law Library I notice the scent of the books, the structure and order of the book cases, and the quiet studious students, all of which serve inspiration to me.

On the third floor of the library, surrounding the perimeter of the room, are desks that seem to be almost hidden behind the book shelves. The desks are larger than most providing ample amount of space for laptops, notebooks, and textbooks. The reading lamp on the desk has a switch – when I turn it on I feel passionate that this is me, in my element, prepared to put in blood, sweat, and tears on the task at hand.

In general I love all libraries, but in particular Charles B. Sears Law Library because I am studying Political Science. The opportunity to obtain endless amounts of Law knowledge at the University at Buffalo makes me optimistic for my future, and determined to practice law in New York State.
