GSLIS Collection

Beatley Library also includes an impressive collection of Library Science materials, which is the largest collection of its kind in New England. It contains materials on the topics of library science, information science, bibliography, and related fields. The collection is committed to serving as New England's library "of record" for the library and information science profession. To this end, a collection of both historic and current materials is maintained. Linda Watkins is the GSLIS Librarian. Contact Linda at linda.watkins@simmons.edu or 617-521-2824.

In addition to Library Science materials housed in the Beatley Library, there is also a Cataloging Lab in the Palace Road building that includes resources and materials for cataloging and related courses. For additional information, please see Technology: Cataloging Lab.
