Alumni Hall (Miami University)

An iconic building on Miami University’s Oxford campus, Alumni Library, also known as Alumni Hall, currently houses the university’s Department of Architecture and Interior Design and the Wertz Art and Architecture Library. This Lombardic Romanesque〔Baer, Elizabeth H. 1997. The history of the Miami University libraries. Oxford, Ohio: Miami University, the Friends of the Miami University Libraries.〕 building built in 1910 celebrated its centennial in 2010.
==History==
The university, founded in 1809, initially housed its library in a room in Old Main, the main building on campus.〔2010. A Centennial Celebration of the Opening and Dedication of the Alumni Library. Oxford: Miami University Librabries Walter Havighurst Special Collections. http://spec.lib.miamioh.edu/home/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Alumni-Library-Exhibit-BrochureA-for-web.pdf〕 As time passed and space ran out in Old Main, the university sought a grant from the Andrew Carnegie Corporation to build a new library on campus. On March 13, 1905 Andrew Carnegie offered the university a $40,000 grant if the university could match the amount with its own $40,000 towards the building.〔Letter addressed to G. P. Benton from J. Bertram, Office of Andrew Carnegie, 20 April 1905. Miami University Libraries Digital Collections,Oxford, OH. http://contentdm.lib.miamioh.edu/cdm/singleitem/collection/alumni_docs/id/10/rec/87〕 In 1908 the university finished raising the money and the building began. Frank Packard from Columbus, Ohio was hired as the architect and construction began in 1909. The building was inspired by Classical Roman architecture and when it opened in 1910, it consisted of a main reading room for 192 people, a periodical room, a few classrooms, faculty rooms a multi-tier stacks for 150,000 volumes.
