About
The Posner Center houses CMU Libraries Special Collections, the university’s repository for rare books, art, and early scientific instruments and calculating machines. A gift of Henry and Helen Posner Jr. in memory of his parents, Henry and Ida Posner Sr., the Posner Center is located between the College of Fine Arts and Posner Hall, facing Margaret Morrison Carnegie Hall and the tennis courts. The rooftop features the Kraus Campo, a meditative outdoor space created by CMU alumnus artist Mel Bochner and landscape architect Michael Van Valkenburgh.
