When one thinks of college, he must necessarily think of books, for books play an enormous part in a college education. When the Main Hall was built in 1896, one room was set aside as a library, but this room soon became too small to accommodate the increasing number of books. Therefore, in December, 1905, Andrew Carnegie generously donated $12,000 to erect a library building, with a capacity of 17,000 volumes, for Cedarville College. The college and community cooperate in maintaining and enjoying the library. The basement of the library at the present time furnishes quarters for the "Eating Club," the literary society, and the department of music. Page Fourteen
