s few admirers. Many
people think the center is an ugly, unfriendly looking place. That will soon change, though. The Ransom Center is undergoing $14 million worth of

last ten years, only 10,000 people each year have visited the building.
Many things will change at the Ransom Center. More windows will be added to make the building less dark and crowded. There will be a 125-seat theater
and three display rooms for viewing rare collections. The reading room will be larger, better lighted, and easier to use. The reading room is the most
important new section as far as most people are concerned. That is because the Ransom Center is home to over 40 million rare books, manuscripts,
photographs, and artworks.
