Webster Athens library policies and guidelines support the goals of providing our students with access to our resources and spaces.

  • The Webster Athens Library consists of the 15.500 volumes of books and is systematically enriched by new acquisitions. It is composed mainly of English titles in the subject areas that follow the curriculum of both the undergraduate and graduate programs. The books are on open access and available on loan.
  • Reference Collection: Dictionaries, encyclopedias, handbooks, atlases, biographies, and directories are some of the book’s students can find in these collections. Since they include information on multiple subjects and are defined as primary reference tools in the chain of research, they are not on loan and students can use only in the library.
