The building houses classrooms and office space for Nursing, Radiography, and Respiratory Care Programs or Departments, and also includes general education classrooms and other faculty offices. An elevator is located just inside the handicapped accessible entrance on the east side. It is a multifunctional area that can accommodate a wide range of events. Its primary purpose is to serve Labette Community College students and residents of Southeast Kansas by providing a place for activities that promote personal enrichment and lifelong learning. Ideally, these cultural, intellectual, and social activities will enhance the quality of community life.
Technology continues to enhance the services provided.
Currently, the Library offers four online databases and one CD-ROM database. An automated interlibrary loan and automated catalog system enhance other services. The three-story Main Building provides space for many classes and programs. The first floor houses biological science, speech and drama, and English departments, as well as the Library. In addition to classrooms, the second floor houses administrative offices, the Print Shop, Thiebaud Theatre, and the Ed Hendershot Gallery.
