Opened in 1969 (the 1969 structure was incapsulated by the 1987 renovation with which we are familiar), the library houses 3 million library volumes, periodicals, and computer resources.[1] Its rare book collection numbers 51,000 items, the oldest dating from 1481 CE.[2]

The library is among the top libraries of the United States according to the Chronicle of Higher Education rankings. It ranks 27th among public research libraries and 52nd among all major academic research libraries in Canada and the U.S. by the Association of Research Libraries.[3]

Its Joel A. Katz Law collection is the largest public law library in the state of Tennessee.
