A photograph of the back half of a classroom located in the basement of Springfield College's Marsh Memorial Library. Another photograph, rg132-01-08-003, shows the front of this classroom at this time.
Marsh Memorial served as the College’s library until the opening of Babson Library in 1971. After Babson Library was opened, Marsh Memorial was renovated for other uses. A chapel was developed in the large room in Marsh which already contained stained glass windows. Marsh is still used for religious purposes today, offering regular worship services for members of the college. Other offices the building houses are the President’s office, the Office of Academic Affairs, and the Department of Public Safety.
