Reference Collection

An active interdisciplinary reference collection consisting of abstracting services, atlases, dictionaries, directories, encyclopedias, handbooks, indexes, writing and style guides, and other information sources is located on the second floor near the Reference/Help Desk.

This collection supports the undergraduate curriculum and attempts to meet the broad informational and cultural needs of students attending the University of Washington. More in-depth research resources can be found in the Suzzallo Library and in discipline-specific branch libraries.

The collection is building-use-only and arranged in Library of Congress Classification format.
