I try to go in every Historic Carnegie Library. Some are still library's but this one was restored for the community for art. This is one of 1,689 he had built in the US. What a great man to build something for the good of society. Was a wonderful way to make books available to everyone. The building inside and out is beautiful.

My dad's been a professor here for over a decade, and I've been lucky enough to visit HSU every 2-3…read moreyears in that time. The campus is unlike any I've ever seen in that it's basically part of the incredibly Humboldt wilderness. There are redwoods on campus with a forest literally next door, and HSU truly embraces the wild side of things. The facilities are nice for the most part, with several new buildings finished in the past year. Being on the HSU campus is a joy, especially if you enjoy nature.

If you care about your mental health, please don't go here. This is a school where a large number…read moreof the students come from other counties. The students specifically pick Humboldt because they had abusive childhoods or trauma they wanted to get super far away from while still having in-state tuition. This leads to highly traumatized young adults flocking to one area and being on their own for the first time. The bullying, harassment, several mental instability, etc. of some of these students is shocking and almost everyone I know has an extreme story of harassment due to this. PLEASE pick anywhere else. Yes, you may have a wonderful time and get lucky - but this school is far more likely that others to leave you with severe trauma, especially when paired with how highly isolated it is from outside support and resources.

The Sanctuary is such a unique place to visit! I just went to their recurring Ambient Cafe cafe…read moreevent, held the 4th Tuesday of the month from 10 am - 2 pm. Musicians play in a big, comfortable space decorated with very interesting art, antiques and seemingly random objects that make you smile. You can read, write, work on your own crafting projects or simply watch the musicians. There are tables and chairs by the big windows where you can spread out, and comfortable seats facing the musicians. There were delicious scones (sweet or savory), fresh coffee drinks and a self-service tea station. You can drop in at any time, and payment is all on the honor/donation system, with no concrete pricing posted. It's a surreal space where you can really relax and get creative! It looks like they have several recurring monthly events and host art exhibits & musical performancee, all listed on their website.

What I Love about this library is that you can reap the benefits of various resources especially if…read moreyou're at HSU student or alumni. For instance you can rent out books, articles or scientific periodicals from other California state universities and I was told also order from international Universities. The benefit of being a grad school is that you can have books up to one year until return date is due and rent out their cam corders and camera for an extended period of time . I started off at this school in 2017 and I definitely have seen many renovations through the years including the café, study rooms, tall shelving and interactive group desks, where group members can meet an use a TV to connect to class projects or the Internet. Till this day the library still has a glass case where they display a wide assortment of clubs, issues and events on campus, with nice added touches of regalia/memorabilia! I highly appreciate the fact that this library recycles electronics this can be found at the exit of the library in the main entrance.
