Yale University was founded in 1701 as the Collegiate School
in the home of Abraham Pierson.
its first rector, in Killingworth, Connecticut.
In 1716 the school moved to New Haven and,
with the generous gift by Elihu Yale of nine
bales of goods, 417 books, and a portrait and arms of King George I,
was renamed Yale College in 1718.
Yale embarked on a steady expansion, establishing
the medical institution (1810), divinity school (1822)
Law School (1843), Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (1847),
the School of Fine Arts (1869), and School of Music (1894).
The Lillian Goldman Law Library in memory of Sol Goldman
was rededicated in the Summer of 2000.
With nearly 800,000 volumes of print materials and
approximately 10,000 active serial titles,
the breadth of the collection is exceptional.
Special strengths of the collection include materials
emphasizing law and the social sciences,
and a 200,000-volume foreign and international law collection.
The Class of 1964 Main Reading Room, pictured here,
is 212 feet long, 36 feet wide, and 39.5 feet high.
In 1995, Yale Law School began a multi-million dollar comprehensive
renovation project to upgrade the library, classrooms, offices,
dormitories, and public spaces.
The renovation project was completed in early 2001
with the re-opening of the YLS Dining Hall.
In 1887 Yale College became Yale University.

the School of Forestry & Environmental Studies (1900),
School of Nursing (1923), School of Drama (1955),
