The library was built as a gift from Mr. & Mrs. Sedgwick Kistler in memory of their 12-year-old daughter who drowned in the Merced River in Yellowstone National Park while on vacation in 1920. She had been a student in the Holy Child St. Leonard’s Academy.

The plan called for a one-story building with a small mezzanine and a full basement, to be used as the college chapel — a role it fulfilled until 1941.
