Addressing the need for change in both policy and practice, The Center's technical assistance, training delivery, research, and information dissemination activities are designed to help states, local communities, and higher education institutions bring about systemic change to replace the currently fragmented training system with one which meets the needs of families, children, and the field. The Library collection currently holds approximately 90,000 volumes and 555 active periodical titles which support the various curriculum offerings of the College. Library archives hold original Froebelian gifts and Montessori materials as well as historical children's literature, a collection of 19th century writing on the kindergarten and materials documenting the history of Wheelock.
