About the Library:
The Library of the Faculty of Archaeology UW was created by merging the resources of the Library of the Chair of Mediterranean Archaeology and the Library of the Chair of Prehistoric and Early Medieval Archaeology. Full access to library resources is offered on the premises only. Loans are made to research and teaching staff from the Institute and from other centres as part of an inter-library exchange and to Faculty of Archaeology students to a more limited extent – in keeping with the Library regulations.
Library resources include publications on prehistory, prehistoric archaeology, Classical archaeology, the archaeology of the Near East and Egypt, medieval archaeology and auxiliary sciences.
The Library has in its keeping books from private libraries of Professors Kazimierz Michałowski, Martin Jahn, Włodzimierz Antoniewicz, and the Volkswagen Foundation.
The Library has an exchange with other libraries in Poland and abroad.
The Library has a collection of M.A. dissertations by FA UW graduates and PhD dissertations.
Since October 2006, the Faculty of Archaeology Library has been developing an online catalogue of its printed resources in cooperation with The University of Warsaw Library.
A digitised version of the teaching resources is being developed at present – for the students of the Faculty of Archaeology. It is available only in the Library Reading Room.
