The library for the SGW Campus was eagerly anticipated from the early l960s. When the Hall Building was built, a separate new library building was planned, originally conceived as a twin to the north of the Hall Building. The library remained in the Norris Building, slowly taking over most of that building. By 1970, the library space problem was so acute that 40,000 volumes were moved into storage; by 1992 a third of the monographs and all but the most recent periodicals were in storage, with frequent pickups to retrieve materials for users. The Library is currently on floors two, three, and four but it will soon expand to the fifth floor as planned. It is named after benefactor R. Howard Webster. When the Webster Library opened in 1992 it included dramatic increases in shelf capacity and seating, and it featured the latest technology. It consolidated library facilities from 11 floors in four widely scattered downtown locations. The library building also houses the J.A. DeSève Cinema, a 173-seat fully equipped theatre used principally as a teaching facility. It is named after Joseph-Alexandre DeSève (1896-1968), theatre owner, distributor, producer, and founder of Télé-Métropole.
