Yeah, I always go for Great Library, National College unless I'm playing humans (it's pretty easy to get GL against AI, but you really need to get lucky with your start and finding ancient ruins that increase population if you want to get it against humans since almost everyone goes for it).

I only play on Marathon, though, so 25 turns to anything decent is nearly impossible LOL
