Raynor Memorial Libraries
Marquette's vast research environment is housed in two facilities:
The libraries offer more than 1.5 million volumes, hundreds
of research databases, computer access, laptops on loan,
a CD and video collection, and library staffs who
help researchers from around the world.
Raynor Memorial Libraries feature a mix of comfortable
seating and group study spaces, more than 200 computer stations and
24-hour, seven-days-a-week access to the main floor Information
Commons during the semesters.
Some of our most popular collections include the original
manuscripts and multiple working drafts for three of J.R.R. Tolkien's most
celebrated books, "The Hobbit" (1937), "Farmer Giles of Ham" (1949), and "The Lord of the Rings" (1954-1955), and a
small collection of incunabula (from the "cradle period" of Western printing), including a 1473 edition of St. Augustine's
"De Civitate Dei" (The City of God). Also from the 15th century is a two-volume edition of the Old Testament.
The Foreign Language Media Center houses the following facilities
for the use of faculty and students: a Movie Screening Room (LL166)
and a Computer Room (LL133). In addition, The Foreign Language
Media Center has an extensive collection of Spanish and Latin
American videos.
