History of the Library

Established in 1967 alongside the college's opening, the library later added a second story in 1972 as the college grew. The college has been home to three librarians since it's opening, with Ms. Henrietta Henderson serving as the first library director until 1968 when Mr. Van Veatch took over. Following Veatch's retirement in 1991, Scott Cohen became the 3rd Library Director, continuing to build the library’s legacy during his 50+ year tenure.
