Among the unusual items located in the library are Student Publications from the School of Design and an index of measured drawings of more than 350 buildings done as summer projects during the 1950's and 1960's. The library has a duplicate collection of several architecture journals, campus plans, building product catalogs, a vertical file of related pamphlets, School of Design theses, and a Special Collection section. Bound journals and current periodicals are shelved alphabetically by title. The Slide Collection consists of approximately 70,000 slides representing areas of architecture, landscape architecture and graphic design. There is a separate card catalog and shelflist for slides located in the slide room.
Slides circulate to the university community.
A limited collection of videos and campus plans are also housed in the slide room. Most reserve material circulates for a limited time period. The CD collection is located at the Information Desk as well as other non-circulating materials. New books and a limited collection of college catalogs are available for review near the current periodical section. Current periodicals, bound journals, student these and special collection materials are non-circulating.
