ELP Library
The department library is located in Room 479 Baldy. Hundreds of volumes are located in open shelves. These materials tend to be dated, but students are welcome to borrow them following the check-out procedures described below.
Current periodicals are displayed in the Department Lounge, 474 Baldy Hall. These materials may be read in the Lounge but should not be removed. Back issues of periodicals to which the Department subscribes are stored in 479 Baldy for about two years. Persons desiring to borrow back issues should contact the librarian whose office is in Room 479D.
The most valuable--and unique--holdings of the library are dissertations of Department graduates and faculty publications. Persons desiring to borrow from this collection should contact the librarian.
