Bell Building

From Special Collections Research Center Wiki

Located at 109 Cary Steet off Jamestown Road, the Bell Building once was a hospital. It was acquired by the College of William and Mary in 1999 to act as temporary housing for the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture while Swem Library was being renovated. In 2006 the building was used by the Psychology Department for their EEG Lab. Psychology faculty offices moved to Tyler Hall in 2009.
