Building Description:
Formerly called the Yale Language Library. The library was established in 1963 and assigned to the renovated and redesigned ground floor of this former hall of the Sheffield Scientific School Society, Delta Phi. Called St Elmo Hall, it was built in 1912 from designs of Kenneth M. Murchison with architectural details reminiscent of an Elizabethan manor house. The University leased a part of the building for dormitory facilities in 1945 and purchased the Hall from the Society in 1962. The Laboratory has 116 fully equipped student positions, class rooms audition rooms, control rooms, two sound proofed rooms designed principally for work on specific problems of pronunciation, and a library of some 6,000 tapes in 28 contemporary languages. The building houses students from Timothy Dwight College, and is considered an annex of the College.[109 Grove Street]
