 * Symbol confirmed.svg New enough and long enough with no problems in terms of policy that I can see. QPQ complete. I don't see a problem with the image, but it could probably use a crop. There's also File:8th Dec 2012-Abdn Uni Library 9.JPG, which might look better as a thumbnail. Both of the existing hooks work. My preference between them is for the first, based mainly on the superlative. I've added two others, since the opening by the Queen strikes me as worth mentioning. Including those, I have a weak preference for ALT3. what are your thoughts?
 * ALT2:... that Queen Elizabeth attended the 2012 opening of the University of Aberdeen's Sir Duncan Rice Library?
 * ALT3:... that the Sir Duncan Rice Library, the University of Aberdeen's largest ever capital fundraising project, was opened by Queen Elizabeth?
