The Art Library serves the needs of the students, faculty and staff of the Dodd. We provide a unique and extensive collection of art periodicals, the newest art book releases, course reserves, reference material, and a zine collection.

Our space includes two computer workstations with the full suite of Adobe software and flatbed and overhead scanners. One work station is in a semi-private office. We also have a screening room complete with DVD, VHS and Blu-ray players and a media collection that includes documentaries and video art.

As a branch of UGA’s larger library system, we receive daily deliveries which allow patrons to request and return books from any other library on campus including GIL express and ILL items.

As the main resource for research at the Dodd, the Art Library maintains a collection of faculty publications, MFA exhibition catalogs, Dodd gallery publications and artist files.

Art Librarians are on hand whenever we are open to assist you with your research needs!

The Artist is Reading

The Artist is Reading is a mini-residency of sorts. Reading lists are solicited from visiting artists, scholars and alumni and then displayed throughout the Dodd on a roaming sandwich board. Books, movies, music, and more have been selected, and all can be checked out by students and faculty via the Art Library.

Zine Library

Begun in 2017, the zine library is a donations-based collection featuring works by Dodd students, faculty, alumni, and the broader Athens community.
