Headline
The Dag Hammarskjöld Library Building at UN Headquarters
Caption Description
On 3 November 1959, the General Assembly accepted ""with highest appreciation"" the Foundation's gift of $6,200,000 for the construction and equipment of the library and requested that a memorial stone recording the gift be placed at the main entrance. On 16 October 1961, the Assembly, acting on the suggestion of the Ford Foundation, and ""desiring to establish an appropriate memorial"" commemorating the late Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld's services to the UN, decided to name the UN library in his honor. The inscription is the result of two unanimous decisions by the General Assembly.
The inscription cut into the marble wall in the hall opposite the entrance door of the new Dag Hammarskjöld Library.
