The National Humanities Center Library is composed of the following collections:

Reference books are arranged along the outside walls of the RJR Commons and the Abrams Reading Area. Updated online versions of many are available. If an updated, online version is available, it is noted in the Library Thing record for the book.

The Robert F. and Margaret S. Goheen Collection, sometimes called the "Fellows' Shelf," is in the glassed cases near the Birkelund Lounge and Abrams Reading Area. It consists of books published as a result of Fellows' research performed at the Center. These items may be used briefly in the library area, but for longer use please request that we borrow a copy.

Journals and newspapers are located in the Abrams Reading Area and the lounge near the serving area.

North Caroliniana are in the Birkelund Lounge.

The Library of America series is on the West Wing stair landing.

The National Humanities Center's library is designed to support the Fellows' research. Although the collection at the National Humanities Center is small, Fellows have access to the collections of the local area research libraries and interlibrary loan service.
