The Heard Library System
'The Library' at Vanderbilt is made up of not one but nine libraries. Each library has a special focus and together they make up the Heard Library system.
| Biomedical | Management | |
| Central | Music | |
| Divinity | Peabody | |
| Law | Science & Engineering | |

Your research can lead you in many different directions, and as a result you may be visiting quite a few of our specialized campus libraries. You'll always find a librarian willing to help with your research at any of the libraries.

In addition to the nine campus libraries, Vanderbilt is home to the TV News Archives, the world's most extensive and complete archive of television news. You can search the TV News Archives via their website or Library Catalog. The footage can be viewed within the Central Library or at the TV News Archives office at 110 21st Ave. S., Suite 704. |
