Libraries

Between the city and the U-M, Ann Arbor has an astonishing wealth of libraries. The Ann Arbor District Library has a superb reference staff, along with recently expanded computing facilities. The U-M library system is one of the largest research collections in the country and probably one of the most accessible.
