Wyndham Robertson Library

Wyndham Robertson Library Welcome to Wyndham Robertson Library at Hollins University! We're here to help you with all your research needs, be they small or thesis-size.

Come to chat with a librarian, check out books and films, or find a quiet place to study. Built in 1999, Wyndham Robertson Library celebrates Hollins University's contribution to the literary world as Virginia's first National Literary Landmark. In the 2006 Princeton Review, our students told us we are a great library, and in 2009, the Association of College & Research Libraries presented us with

the “Excellence in Academic Libraries” award. We invite you to come see for yourself!
