The University of Florida boasts an impressive collection of resources that are available to the public during normal business hours. See their website to learn more about what is available for visitors.
Here is a list of the libraries available and see the map below for their locations on campus.
Use the online UF Library Catalog and Discovery Service to research and preview what materials might be useful to you. Some digital materials may only be available while students are on UF Campus.
The UF Digital Collections Site hosts many free & open source documents that students may access and use anwhere with internet access. This includes many historical photos, documents, books, and other types of primary source documents as well as articles, magazines and newspapers (ie. Gainesville Sun).
Students may opt to visit the libraries on their own. If so, they should pay special attention to knowing which library will have the materials they are interested in purusing.
Additionally, be sure to review the information about parking on campus. The library is open to all visitors during normal business hours (this includes weekends).
Teachers who would like to plan a field trip to one of the University of Florida Libraries should reach out to staff at the library they are interested in visiting. If a teacher is interested in receiving a program at the library (ie. how to search databases), they will need to coordinate that with library staff. If unsure, you can always use the Ask-a-Librarian feature on the UF Library Site.
Librarians are available to provide training during scheduled trips for students to learn how to access the online databases that are only available while on the UF campus. Additionally, they may be able to provide sessions on other related topics, such as plagiarism.
