The university library has the world's largest to-scale collection of miniature airplane models.  The John W. Kalusa Miniature Aircraft Collection is comprised of over 5,829 pre-flight, private, commercial, and military and rocket aircraft models.  Each model is carved out of balsa wood, using a razor blade.  The models are built to a 1/18 inch-to-foot scale. In 2003 the Kalusa collection was inducted into the Guinness World Records for the largest collection of handmade aeroplanes in the world.
