Library sit-in.

Images likely from a study-in held on Wednesday, March 12, 1969 in Dana Porter Arts Library. The study-in was sponsored by the Radical Student Movement (RSM). Participants distributed broadsheets, sold literature and buttons, and circulated a petition. The study-in was intended to advocate for a series of demands to improve the library. Demands included that the university allocate a sum to library acquisitions and operations that was not less than ten percent of the total university operating budget, that immediate steps be taken to make space occupied by administration offices available for books and study space, that all meetings of the university budgets committee be open to any student, faculty, and staff member and that the committee publish a detailed budget upon its completion. At the end of the study-in a joint negotiating committee to study student demands regarding the library was formed.

Between various sources including articles in The Chevron and Admininews as well as an unidentified press clipping (found in UWA2020-04-2-Library Protests) the event is referred to as both a "study-in" and a "sit-in."
