Article is long enough, new enough (5x expansion), and well-referenced. Two questions though: I couldn't find any reference to support the "48 kilometers of shelf space" claim (ref #4 is about a different library and does not mention the 48 km figure). Also I think the words "and business" should be removed from the hook, as sources only say it's the largest economics library. -Zanhe (talk) 01:04, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
- ah yes good catch it is both types of libraries but only economics size is specifically cited. The 48km of space was from the right source but wrong page, so I repaired the link (the figure changed also I notice Grrrr). Fixed hook is:-- Ultracobalt (talk) 02:10, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
