The University of Illinois library, which is the 3rd largest behind Harvard and Yale, is underground, so that it will not throw shade on the Morrow Plots - an experimental corn field.
From their website:
"The Morrow Plots. Established in 1876 near the center of the University's Urbana-Champaign campus, these plots are unique. The plots comprise the oldest continuously operated agronomic experiment field in the United States and include the oldest continuous corn plot in the world. Although designated a National Historic Landmark, the Morrow Plots continue to yield data on the effects of different cropping systems and soil treatments on crop yields and soil property. "
