The library is everywhere you are. Research assistance is available by walk-in, e-mail, phone, chat and text, and by appointment with the librarian who specializes in your discipline. The UT Libraries holds 3.6 million print volumes and provides access to a vast collection of electronic journals, books, and media. Visit the library website to chat with a librarian, find books and electronic resources, watch a video tutorial about using the library, or connect with us on social media.

The John C. Hodges Library in the heart of campus houses the majority of the UT Libraries’ collections and many unique services. The technology-rich Commons, which comprises the entire second floor of Hodges Library, is a popular gathering place for students, for both studying and socializing. At the Commons, students can get walk-in research assistance, check out equipment such as laptops and cameras, work collaboratively in group study rooms, create videos or multimedia projects in the Studio, use a Practice Presentation Room, or visit the coffee shop and convenience store. The Scholars’ Collaborative offers expertise in data management, scholarly communications issues such as open-access publishing, Geographic Information Systems and other emerging forms of scholarship. A Graduate Commons on the first floor supports the unique needs of graduate students as they engage in writing, studying, and research. During the semester, the Hodges Library remains open 24 hours, five nights a week.

Two branch libraries offer specialized collections and services: the Webster C. Pendergrass Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine Library on the Agriculture Campus and the George F. DeVine Music Library in the Natalie L. Haslam Music Center. Other unique collections available to students include Special Collections (manuscripts and rare books) in Hodges Library and digitized collections of some of the library’s unique holdings.

The UT Libraries creates community with its inviting spaces and through hosting events such as the Lunch and Learn series on diversity and inclusion.
