 | | Built in 1941 to house the Joint University Libraries, a cooperative venture of Vanderbilt University, Peabody College, and Scarritt College, this collegiate gothic building designed by architect Henry Hibbs was the first centrally air-conditioned building on campus. |
 | | The JUL Building and all other campus libraries became units of Vanderbilt University Library after Peabody College merged with Vanderbilt in 1979. |
 | | In 1983, Vanderbilt's library, with its several units, was named in honor of Alexander Heard, Chancellor of the University from 1963 to 1982, and his wife, Jean Keller Heard. |
