In 1957, it was remodeled and in 1961, it was re-dedicated as ‘Cunningham Memorial Library’ in honor of Indiana State’s first Librarian, Mr. Arthur Cunningham (1891-1928).
On the centennial of its construction, it was announced that it would be fully remodeled and will become a student academic honors center.[2] Pg.3-5
