Doheny East Asian Book Stacks

This is one of USC's greatest treasures.

In particular, the underground bookstacks have a huge collection of Korean texts, especially from the 20th century.

For context, USC was founded in 1880, and Dr. Dosan Ahn Chang-ho's family house is on campus today.

The school has been tied to Korea and its history for a long time, so a lot of that literature naturally ended up here.

But many Koreans don't know or care about this space 😅.
