Upon his death in 1940, Eben Jones, an active Board member for 50 years, established a large endowment to fund future construction. These funds were used to construct a new wing of the library in 1957. A meeting room was added, along with a kitchen, a basement hall for civic meetings, and an office for the librarian.
