History

In 1993, a Columbus Road building was acquired to repurpose it as the Library Annex. The building has previously been a roller rink and a car dealership. The Annex opened for service in 1998 and was renamed Hwa-Wei Lee Library Annex in 1999, in honor of Dr. Lee, library dean from 1978-1999.
