I take issue with the following sentence from the "Trivia" section:
Butler's exterior appears briefly in both of these films but I don't think it "was featured prominently" in either. There was a scene in Ghostbusters set inside a library, but it was neither set nor filmed in Butler. The only scenes in Spider-Man set at Columbia took place in a biology lab which the film suggests is inside Low Memorial Library, not Butler.
I haven't removed the sentence because other users may have persuasive reasons to keep it in place. I'll check back periodically to see if anyone has responded. 4.232.225.61 21:49, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
I forgot to get back to this, but now that I have stumbled upon my prior note I see that no one has replied. I'll go ahead and make the change. (For the record, the library scene in Ghostbusters was set at the Main Branch of the New York Public Library and filmed inside the Los Angeles Central Library. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.127.99.72 ( talk) 20:07, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
Please provide absolute proof of this information. Looking at a Columbia produced calendar of libraries, it says, again, that "Butler library has been featured in the films Ghostbusters and Spider-Man." Could be totally wrong, but I work in Butler and have been around the campus for a few years. What I've been told is that while the library in Ghostbusters was set at the NYPL, either the inside stacks shots (with the librarian ghost) are Butler OR the outside shot as Ray runs down the steps are Low Library. This could be wrong, haven't checked the movie. In Spider-Man, doesn't Dr. Connor (later to become the Lizard) confront Peter about missing class, and is that not Butler in the background? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.59.153.80 ( talk) 18:39, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
I would say the present situation is preferable to having them merged. The RBML article now includes the content of the former Archives article.-- Felix Folio Secundus ( talk) 16:46, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
I am suggesting we replace the lede image with the one I have uploaded here (a slightly revised version of the image that, when originally added, was reverted). Clearly, the current image is blurry and not up to the necessary quality standards. JSquish ( talk) 20:34, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
