Welcome to the UW Libraries!
Did you know that the UW Libraries is not just one library?
UW Libraries is a network of 15 different libraries across UW campuses offering a world of resources, services, and support. Whether you’re looking for a place to study, need help finding resources, or want to create a digital project, UW Libraries can help!
There are libraries in Bothell, Tacoma, and the San Juan Islands, and the rest are on the Seattle campus.
On this tour, we will explore some of the UW Seattle campus libraries to learn about their spaces, resources, and services for students. You can complete this tour in person or online.
The tour begins at Odegaard Library, followed by the Suzzallo and Allen Libraries. Visit the remaining libraries in any order you choose!
While this tour focuses on physical library spaces and services, as a UW student, you have access to the full array of resources, support, and learning opportunities provided by UW Libraries.
You can find online help anytime with 24/7 chat, research guides, and the Undergraduate Researcher Tutorial. Learn about all the ways the libraries can support you in the UW Libraries Student Guide.
