In the summer of 1992, the lecture hall underwent a major renovation, as did several of the classrooms in Bareis. Beeghly Library is the intellectual heart of Heidelberg. Industrialist Leon A. Beeghly provided the major gift for construction of this three-story circular structure. Dedicated in 1967, the library has shelf space for 200,000 volumes. Beeghly holds the unique Besse Collection, nearly 7,000 volumes of English and American correspondence, and the Pohlable Collection of books on ballet and the circus.
Students have easy access to periodicals, reference books and listening equipment.
The Media Center is located in the library. Brenneman Music Hall is the center for the college's musicians. The west portion, completed in 1949, was designed for use by the violin, voice, organ, piano and instrumental divisions of the music department. A three-story addition, made possible by a gift from Clara Brenneman of Wadsworth in honor of her husband, Glen, opened in the fall of 1971. The building now contains a 325-seat concert hall, a recital hall, classrooms, practice studios, the Beethoven Lounge, offices, a music library and a recording studio.
