The Staff Association was informally founded in 1940 "to plan programs of professional and cultural interest, to provide a medium for the expression of staff opinion, to promote staff welfare, to consider ways and means of improving library services, to promote cordial relations with the faculty, and to provide an opportunity for administrative members of the staff to make announcements pertaining to the staff." The association was discontinued in Fall 1995.
