University Libraries

The University of Connecticut Libraries form the largest public research collection in the state. The collection contains over 2.5 million volumes, 9,000 currently received print periodicals, over 25,000 electronic journals, 2.8 million units of microform, 35,000 reference sources, 180,000 maps and an array of electronic information sources, many of which contain the full text of research journals, monographs, and historic documents.

All the UConn Libraries share a single catalog and form a single collection; each library unit serves as a full gateway to the entire collection. The Libraries’ networked resources, including many electronic databases, thousands of e-journals, e-books, and numerous full text reference tools, are available to all members of the University community via the Internet.

Each of the University’s six campuses maintains a library dedicated to serving its programs:

• Avery Point
• Hartford
• Stamford
• Storrs
• Torrington
• Waterbury
