The recently-renovated Beatley Library is one of Simmons College's pride and joys. The building is five stories and contains room for up to 240,000 physical volumes, and features a state of the art system that allows the shelves to move apart and together to conserve space. The library contains a number of PCs and Macs for use by Simmons students, as well as protected wi-fi throughout the building.
In addition to books, Beatley Library is also home to numerous study and and conference rooms that are made available to students on request.
Simmons College Library participates in the Fenway Library Consortium, allowing their patrons to access books from other schools in the area as well as the Boston Public Libraries.
