The building opened in 1926 and served the college as a library until 1967 and the opening of Terteling Library. In 1968 the building was renamed Strahorn Hall, and it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[2] HistoryThe city of Caldwell was platted in 1883 by Robert E. Strahorn, and in 1891 the College of Idaho enrolled its first class of 19 students at a location near Strahorn's home in what is now the North Caldwell Historic District.[3][4] The college moved to its present campus in 1910.[5] In 1925 Strahorn donated money for construction of the Carrie Adell Strahorn Memorial Library, named in memory of his wife.[2] At the time, the college employed 25 faculty with an enrollment of 500 students.[6][7] By 1932 the library included more than 10,000 books,[8] and in 1942 the count was 22,000 books.[9] The library was expanded in 1962, and when a new library opened in 1967 Strahorn was remodeled, reopening in 1968 with offices and classrooms under the name Strahorn Hall.[10] Reflecting on the building, a librarian wrote in 1961, "On the day it first opened its doors in 1926 Strahorn Library was already a badly outdated building whose construction violated every theory of library architecture."[2] See also
