Main Collections
The Business & Economics Library primarily
serves the instructional and research needs of the College
of Business and the Department
of Economics faculty and students.
Its core collection contains approximately 65,000 volumes and 1,200
periodical and serial titles. A growing part of the collection is available
in electronic form. For items not found in the UIUC collection, go to the
Interlibrary Borrowing

While the majority of the Business & Economics Library's collection relates to the
broad subjects of accounting, business administration, economics, and
finance, peripheral areas such as sociology, statistics, communications, and
labor & industrial relations also form part of the collection.
