The new library was built with money from the College's Centennial Fund which began in 1968 and also funded the building of the Edward Danforth Eddy Theatre and the renovations of the Andrew W. Mellon student/faculty center. The Library is 59,000 square feet and fully air conditioned. It includes individual study spaces, conference and seminar rooms, art exhibits, and a room for the College's Special Collections.
