The library is everywhere you are. Research assistance (lib.utk.edu/askusnow) is available by walk-in, e-mail, phone, chat and text, and by appointment with the librarian who specializes in your discipline (lib.utk.edu/librarians). The UT libraries provides access to over 3.7 million titles, including print and electronic books, journals, and media. Even when you are not on campus or at the library, we are available to answer questions and help you find the resources you need. Visit library.utk.edu to chat with a librarian, find books and electronic resources, or watch a video tutorial about using the library.

The John C. Hodges Library in the heart of campus houses the majority of the UT Libraries’ collections and many unique services. In the Commons, on the second floor of Hodges Library, students can get help with research, writing, and academic support, as well as access to technology. Students may check out equipment such as laptops and cameras, use group study rooms, attend online classes, create videos or multimedia projects in The Studio, use a Practice Presentation Room, or visit the coffee shop and convenience store.

Two branch libraries offer specialized collections, spaces, 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 online digitized collections of some of the library’s unique holdings at digital.lib.utk.edu.
