The Andrews Library (1962) was made possible largely
through the gift of the late Mabel Shields (Mrs. Matthew) Andrews of
Cleveland, Ohio. Along with the adjoining Flo K. Gault Library
for Independent Study and the nearby Timken Science
Library in Frick Hall, its five floors are air-conditioned and
house a collection of about one
million items.
The libraries seat more than 800 general readers, including 285 private
study carrels available for seniors engaged in Independent Study and
for retired faculty. In addition to housing the College’s library
resources in the humanities and social sciences and its collection of
United States government documents and electronic data, Andrews and Gault
libraries contain Special Collections, the Education Resource Center
for student teachers, the McCoy Computer Laboratory (with eighteen computer
workstations and seating for twenty-seven students), and a variety of
rooms for group study and classes. Computer workstations for accessing
library catalogs and databases are located throughout the buildings.
The Instructional Media Center includes the McCreight Learning Laboratory
(a thirty-station facility for foreign language instruction and testing,
individual or group use of video and audio tapes, and a variety of other
multimedia applications), the Graphics Room, and video editing and other
production facilities. The Writing Center and the offices of the Registrar
and Financial Aid are also housed here.
