The scientific name of the museum is Li Wenzheng Pavilion, because it was donated by Mr. Li Wenzheng, a famous financier and industrialist in China and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Indonesian Lippo Group. Because it is located on the north side of the master library system, it is called the North Library. Upon completion, the North Library will form a comprehensive and modern Tsinghua University Library with rich collections and diverse functions together with the old library and Shaw Museum.

Introduction of Li Wenzheng Pavilion:

The North Pavilion opens to the north, and the 45-degree angle of the sunken courtyard is just symmetrical with the entrance of Mingzhai (a cultural relic protection building built in the 1930s in Tsinghua campus). The appearance of red brick wall and sloping roof continues the previous architectural style, the arched porch echoes the architectural symbols of Tsinghua, and the large glass curtain wall faces the Shaw Hall in the south for dialogue.

North Library serves the readers of the whole school, collects Chinese and foreign books and provides lending services. The building is divided into two floors underground and five floors above ground. Above the ground is a transparent space for borrowing and storing books, and the 1 floor is connected with the reading room of Yifu Hall, forming an open service area. Many floors are equipped with convenient service facilities such as self-service printing, self-service borrowing and returning, self-service telephone, retrieval terminal and newspaper reader. The underground B layer is a dense reservoir area, and the G layer is connected with the sinking square.
