About
Vairo Library
The
John D. Vairo Library is named after the founding Campus
Director (right). John Vairo, an associate professor of journalism
at the university, was appointed Campus Director, effective
January 1, 1967. The library occupied classroom space in the
original campus facility in Chester, Pa. When the campus moved
to its present location in 1970, the Library was located on
the first floor of the Main Building in space now occupied
by the bookstore and the Registrar's office. The current library facility
opened in December 1980, was dedicated in September 1981, and
was named in honor of John Vairo in September 1995. An endowment
to support the growth of the collections was established to
honor John Vairo on the occasion of his retirement in 1986.
