Curriculum Library

The Curriculum Library became part of the Grinnell College Libraries in 1999. All Curriculum Library material is cataloged and included in the libraries' online catalog. It is a closed, non-circulating collection for the use of Education Department students and faculty. It is located in Steiner Hall Educational Seminar Rooms 204 and 205. Text books, audio-visual materials, kits, and other materials similar to those found in school library media centers are placed here for use primarily by students enrolled in education courses including student teaching. Education faculty and students may bring materials to Burling for check-out

If you are not a member of the Education Department and wish to use an item from the Curriculum Library you may fill out a request form at the Burling Library Circulation Desk to have the item paged and brought to Burling daily, Monday-Friday, for your perusal.

Burling Library houses the circulating collection of education related journals and monographs including curriculum guides, methods books, research, theory and history, government documents and reference resources which support the teacher education program as well as other courses offered through other departments. Online searchable databases and journals are available from computers throughout the campus including the libraries.

Stewart Library (926 Broad Street), Grinnell's public library, has a large collection of juvenile literature, fiction and nonfiction. Student's at Grinnell College are encouraged to get a Stewart Libary card and to make use of the public library's collection.
