Heading to the library to study is a tradition for most college students. Here at CU-Boulder, that means a trip to Norlin Library, or perhaps to one of the four branch libraries: William M. White Business Library; Jerry Crail Johnson Earth Sciences and Map Library; L.H. Gemmill Engineering, Mathematics and Physics Library;听and the Howard B. Waltz Music Library.
The library is about much more than books, but since we're on the topic, if you're looking for a book, you're in the right place. The University Libraries system on campus is the largest library collection in the Rocky Mountain region - home to more than 6.6 million print volumes, and more than 14 million books, ebooks, periodicals, government publications, audio-visual materials, microforms, maps, manuscripts and other materials.
