As one might expect of a college campus, Williams has lots of books.

==Main Libraries==

[[Sawyer Library]] holds the largest collection of books at Williams, and includes most non-science holdings ([[Division I]] and [[Division II|II]]).

[[Schow Library]] is the second-largest holding on campus, composed of resources for the sciences (including [[psychology]]).

==Specialty Libraries==

The [[Archives and Special Collections]], or just "The Archives," located on the first floor of [[Stetson Hall]], specializes in materials on Williams history.

The [[Chapin Library]] of Rare Books is the jewel in the Williams library crown, where the most valuable holdings at the college are stored.

The [[Math-Stats Library]] in [[Bronfman]], officially the Dana Towne Library, holds [[mathematics|math]] publications.

The [[Matt Cole Library]] in [[Kellogg House]] holds resources related to [[Environmental Studies]].

The [[1914 Library]] is a special library whose holdings are determined completely by its mission as a lender: 1914 holds and lends books that are used in courses at Williams.

The campus has additional even more [http://www.williams.edu/library/collections.php special-interest libraries].

==Informal Collections==

[[Books You're Welcome to Borrow]] is a list of books that students have and will lend to you.
