NC State's first library, Brooks Hall resembles Thomas Jefferson's Monticello in Virginia. Today, Brooks Hall houses the School of Design. One wall displays an image taken from a structure designed by Louis Sullivan, a famous American architect known for his skyscraper designs. Student work and exhibitions of notable design work are displayed in the building's corridors.

The School of Design (ncsudesign.org) has gained a worldwide reputation in the past few decades and its building is named after an exceptional educational leader, Eugene Clyde Brooks (1871-1941).
