LIBRARY FACILITIES

The General Library contains about 120,000 volumes. Departmental libraries,
notably those of the Scientific Schools, the Classical, the English, and
the Heck Memorial Library of the Department of Education, have more
than 40,000 volumes. Graduate students may, through the office of the General
Library, get certain books needed in research from the Library of Congress
and the Virginia State Library. Library facilities for graduate study,
both in arts and sciences, are excellent.
