The Avery Architectural & Fine Arts Library collects books and periodicals in architecture, historic preservation, art history, painting, sculpture, photography, decorative arts, city planning, real estate, and archaeology. The architectural and fine arts components are non-circulating. Materials in the Ware Collection, mainly books on urban planning and real estate development, do circulate. The

Library contains more than 450,000 volumes and receives approximately 1,000 periodicals. The scope of the Avery collection in architecture is outstanding; it ranges from the first Western printed book on architecture, De re aedificatoria (1485), by Leone Battista Alberti, to the classics of modernism by Frank Lloyd Wright and Le Corbusier. Avery's drawing and archives collection holds approximately 1,500,000 drawings and original records.
