About the Charles Trumbull Hayden Library
The Charles Trumbull Hayden Library was built in 1966 on Arizona State University's Tempe campus, at 300 East Orange Mall. Its namesake, Charles Trumbull Hayden, founded Tempe and was the first board president of the Arizona Territorial Normal School, the school that became ASU.
The architects were Frederick Weaver and Richard Drover of the firm Weaver & Drover, and the contractor was TGK Construction Company Inc. Work began in 1965 on the five-story building. In August 1966, more than 600,000 volumes were moved in from the Matthews Library, and a dedication event in November 1966 featured Senator Carl T. Hayden speaking about his father's contributions to Tempe.
The original architects designed an underground plaza and entrance, added in 1989, and a renovation by Ayers Saint Gross was completed in 2020. Hayden is ASU's largest library, with millions of books on the humanities and social sciences. Among its special collections are the University Archives, the Labriola National Indian Data Center and the Chicano Research Collection, plus the Arizona Collection.

- One piece with the ground
- The Charles Trumbull Hayden Library is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
