James Buchanan Duke, who lived from 1856 to 1925, was a philanthropist, master builder, creator of the Duke Endowment, and benefactor of humankind. Furman University named this library in his honor in grateful recognition of his generous support. His words held that education, when conducted along sane and practical, as opposed to dogmatic and theoretical, lines, is, next to religion, the greatest civilizing influence.
