Scripps Hall was built with a 1904 gift from Andrew Carnegie for the construction of a building for the university's library. The building was used as Ohio University's library until 1930 when the Chubb Library was built. After the construction of Chubb Library, it was remodeled for classrooms and offices. The Carnegie Library building was renamed Carnegie Hall in 1936. The building was completely renovated and expanded to include an atrium in 1985. Renamed "Scripps Hall," the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism moved into the building in January, 1986.
