The Oliver Wendell Holmes Library is located in the heart of the campus and serves the informational and recreational reading needs of members of the Phillips Academy community.

In support of the Academy's mission of helping students to master skills, acquire knowledge, and think critically, creatively and independently, the librarians work closely with the faculty to provide students with the information skills necessary for lifelong learning. The instruction program emphasizes the four research processes of reading, research, evaluation and writing.

The library offers students a circulating collection of more than 120,000 fiction and non-fiction books and over 300 periodical titles for both academic and personal use. Through our consortium, our users have access to more than 3 million items. Eighteen computers are available for student use along with network connections for laptops.
