Daniel Poor was one of the pioneer missionaries of the American Board who started the American Ceylon Mission in Jaffna in 1816. He was also one of the founders for the American Madura Mission established in Madurai (then Madura) in 1835. Samuel A Morman, the granddaughter of Dr. Daniel Poor, was the key person to build the library building by donating $25,000 to the American Board of Missionaries on January 26, 1926.〔http://www.americancollege.edu/Lib_History.aspx〕 Between 1914 and 1920, J. A. Sanders worked as its first librarian, establishing the college library. 5000 books were accessioned during its first year. The collection was housed in the Main Hall of the college.
This building was originally planned for a ground floor that would house a stack room for about 50,000 volumes, a small museum and a teacher’s room. The first floor was to house a library study room and two lecture rooms. Presently this building houses a stack room, a reference section, a reading room, technical section and a computerized student access catalog system.
