      The library’s main floor houses a computer classroom, study and collaborative work spaces, a cafe, a digital multimedia development suite, library services, the Learning Commons, and the Allegheny Gateway. The library’s other two floors provide quiet study spaces and house a rich mix of print and electronic resources.


      The library also provides Allegheny students with 24/7 access to electronic resources. Any materials not immediately available in the library’s print or online collections can be borrowed through library services from other institutions in Pennsylvania and, if necessary, worldwide.


      The Special Collections area, located on the upper floor, was renovated and expanded in 2007 to include the Wayne & Sally Merrick Historic Archival Center. Special Collections include the College’s original library, collected by Timothy Alden during the College’s early years; the Ida M. Tarbell Collection; and other notable manuscript and book collections. The library is a depository for United States and Pennsylvania documents. All Library collections are available for students’ use.
