In 1941, the library was rebuilt in Calhoun Hall and later moved to the comprehensive library building of the school.In 1990, the Theological Seminary received a donation from the Raymond Zimmerman Family Foundation, which gave the library a chance to expand again and increase the collection of Jewish cultural relics.
● Natural Science and Engineering Library

For example, the geology and pharmacy library and the biology library were all located in an old Science Hall;The Chemical Library is located in Furman Hall;The biological library is located in the Buttrick Hall;The Geology and Physics Library is located in Garland Hall.In 1972, books on natural science were classified and sorted as materials of the Department of Natural Science, and were moved to Stevenson Center to establish a new natural science and engineering library.
● Biomedical Library
The Medical Library was founded in 1906 in the Medical College, which collected materials from the former Nashville Medical College Library.In 1925, the collection of the library was about 9000 books, and by 1932, it had increased to 26000 books (at this time, it was merged with the library of the Nursing College).In 1964, the library was moved to the new north building of the medical center.In 1994, the school built a new Anette and Irwin Eskind biomedical library building.At some time, the library had more than 210000 copies of printed matter, 81000 copies of monographs, 129000 copies of serial periodicals, rare and precious books, manuscripts, historical pictures, etc.
