Booker Family Observatory

Situated on the ridge overlooking the city, the Booker Family Observatory boasts a wide collection of telescopes, from state-of-the-art models to old brass antiques, all of which are functional and offer a close up perspective of the heavens. From early on in the College's history, the Booker estate has paired with the school to aid in teaching each new generation of astronomers.

Attached to the observatory is the private library belonging to the Booker estate. While the library is not open to visitors, some of its titles are on loan at the college and available to read under supervision.
