About the Curriculum Library

The Curriculum Library, a branch of the University Libraries, is housed in Horrabin Hall room 80. This collection, containing approximately 37,000 volumes, consists of special education tests, children and young adult books, K-12 textbook series, and teaching aids. Access to these materials is through the online WIU Library Catalog. In addition to the materials collection, the Curriculum Library has study carrels available for quiet individual study and tables for small group study.  The Curriculum Library also has 5 computer stations, ten iPads, and a printer and scanner for patron use.

Two basic goals for the Curriculum Library are to build as fine a collection of teaching materials as funds and efforts permit and to make them easily accessible to students and faculty in the teacher education program at Western Illinois University.
