The sociology collection in the University of Illinois Library supports the teaching and
research programs in sociology and its subdisciplines, such as demography and social ecology,
social psychology, and urban and community studies. Current areas of focus within the department
include: Social Dynamics and Structure, Race, Class, & Gender, and Transnational Studies.
Current English-language books, as well as the core journals in sociology, social science
methodology, and social theory are housed in the the Education and Social Science Library, but the
majority of the estimated 100,000 volumes held in the field of sociology are located in the central
bookstacks of the Main Library.
Please direct all comments, requests for information, or suggestions for items to purchase to
