Q. How do I find rare books?

Wollongong Campus Library holds a small, yet varied, collection of rare books, pamphlets and ephemera.

The Collection numbers some 900 individual items dating from as early as 1582 (Boccaccio's Il Decameron). Original books published before 1800 are also housed here.

You'll find the Reading Room on the Ground Floor of Wollongong Campus Library. Talk to a staff member at the Service Desk if you need to access an item.

Note: our rare books cannot be borrowed or photocopied.
