The Teaching Resources Center on the second floor is fantastic! They have lots of resources available, and everyone I've met has been very knowledgable and helpful.
If you're a teacher or like to read young adult fiction books then you should really check out the Teaching Resource Center on the second floor. There's a few study rooms located in the area too.
If the library doesn't have what you want, ask interlibrary loan to get it for you from another library: http://www.ecu.edu/cs-lib/interlibraryloan.cfm.
Namesake: James Yadkin Joyner
Built in: 1954
Random fact: From the beginning of East Carolina Teachers Training School, the library was located in the original Austin Building, and then moved to Whichard for the period October 1924 to March 1954.
