Resources in Psychology

About the Collection

The Psychology collection in the Education and Social Science Library supports the instruction and research of the Department of Psychology. These resources include materials in the areas of biological, clinical, developmental, experimental, personality/social, quantitative, organizational, and individual psychology. This collection was originally organized in the early 1900's and is considered to be one of the finest in the state and region. Current, English- language books and journals in Psychology are housed in the Education and Social Science Library. The majority of the estimated 120,000 volumes are located in the Bookstacks of the Main Library at UIUC. In addition, the Susan Stout Memorial Library within the Psychology Department houses a noncirculating collection of approximately 80 core psychology journals and a small collection of monographs. Peripheral psychology resources may be found in the campus libraries, including Biology, Business and Economics, Computer Science, and Labor/Industrial Relations.
