"Reeves Library (architect Jens-R. Larson of New York, ground broken June,
1950 and dedicated at 1951 commencement). This building is named after long-time
English professor, Jeremiah B. Reeves whose family made a sizable gift to help
build it.
The building is two story and rectangular in plan an constructed of buff
brick (stretcher bond), capped with a hipped roof faced with asphalt shingles.
It faces to the east. In 1980, the two story office area was removed from the
rear to make room for a two story rectangular extension which will be the new
western entrance to the library. Although this building is less than 50 years
old, because it is architecturally compatible with the historic architecture of
the Campus, inclusion as a contributing building is recommended" ~ Historic
