About the John J. Burns Library

The John J. Burns Library of Boston College is best known for its collections in Irish history, literature and music, its holdings of nineteenth and twentieth century British & British Catholic Authors, Jesuitica (books written by Jesuit authors until the suppression of the Society of Jesus in 1773), and the unique Williams Ethnological Collection, which features maps, books, prints and manuscripts dealing with the Caribbean.  The Burns Library also houses the University Archives of Boston College, including Boston College yearbooks, campus publications and faculty papers.

These materials are available for use in the Burns Library Reading Room during our open hours.
