The Undergraduate Library was conceived of by the university's senior administrators as part of their broader plan to decentralize services then offered by the badly overcrowded university library. The Undergraduate Library, the second such facility built in the nation, was designed to specially serve the needs of the university's undergraduate student population, as well as funnel those students away from the university's original library. Opened for student use on January 16, 1958, the facility contained 50,000 books and a wide array of audiovisual material.
