==History==
The Frank W. Mayborn Building was originally the Manual Training building, built at the George Peabody College for Teachers.〔 Conken, Paul, Peabody College: From a frontier academy to the frontiers of teaching and learning. Vanderbilt University Press. Nashville, TN. p. 189. 〕 The college finalized the building plans in July 1912. By August 1912, the Peabody College contracted the Hedden Construction Company for the price of $162,000.〔 Board Minutes of George Peabody College September 16, 1912, pp. 304-308, Special Collections, Vanderbilt University 〕〔 The building was completed in 1914, making it "the oldest building on the Peabody campus".〔 The Peabody Reflector, Summer 1979, Vol LII, No. 2 〕 Soon after its completion, the Manual Training building became known as the Industrial Arts building.〔 Conken, Paul, Peabody College: From a frontier academy to the frontiers of teaching and learning. Vanderbilt University Press. Nashville, TN. p. 188. 〕
As part of the process of reaccrediting their Master's of Library Science, the Industrial Arts building underwent a $600,000 renovation.〔 Conken, Paul, Peabody College: From a frontier academy to the frontiers of teaching and learning. Vanderbilt University Press. Nashville, TN. p. 340. 〕 Mayborn was a well respected man who had served as a Peabody trustee for seven years.〔 This Week at Peabody, November 1, 1977, Special Collections, Vanderbilt University 〕 After observing Peabody's financial difficulties, Mayborn offered the school a gift of $1 million to be disbursed over 10 years.〔 Conken, Paul, Peabody College: From a frontier academy to the frontiers of teaching and learning. Vanderbilt University Press. Nashville, TN. p. 342. 〕 As a gesture of appreciation, the college changed the name of the Industrial Arts Building to the Frank W. Mayborn Building. According to Peabody president John Dunworth, "Mayor Richard Fulton... emphasized the significance of the event by proclaiming November 10 'Frank W. Mayborn Day' in Metro Nashville."〔 This Week at Peabody, November 1, 1977, Special Collections, Vanderbilt University 〕 At that time, the Mayborn building held "the Peabody School of Library Science, the college's programs for educators of youth, the instructional media center, faculty offices, and classrooms."〔 The Tennessean, November 11, 1977, Special Collections, Vanderbilt University 〕 Today, the Mayborn building houses Peabody's Human and Organizational Development program. 〔 http://peabody.vanderbilt.edu/people/index.php 〕
