The Libraries of the University of Florida form the largest information resource system in the state of Florida. Nine campus libraries reflect the university's increasingly broad research and instruction programs. Over the past 100 years, faculty and librarians have built hundreds of specialized collections, now totaling more than four million volumes, printed in practically every written language by publishers throughout the world. The George A. Smathers Libraries of the University of Florida includes specialized collections in science, architecture, art, education, journalism, the humanities, the social sciences, history, languages, and music. Our collections cover all areas of contemporary knowledge, from agriculture to zoology and from philosophy to history. All of the libraries serve all of the university's faculty and students, but each has a special mission to be the primary support of specific colleges and degree programs. The libraries support the very best educational, research and service performance of university faculty and students by using the latest online technology and time-honored methods for the collection and the preservation of library and learning resources. |
