Renovations/changes/additions: Space on the second floor of the Old Arts Building was designed for library use in 1842. In 1876 the library was moved to the newly built third floor as the volume of books continued to increase.

Notes: The library was housed within the Old Arts Building until the University Library was constructed in 1929.
