While Barnard students have access to the libraries at Columbia University, the college has always maintained a library of its own. The Barnard Library also encompasses the Archives and Special Collections, with material that documents Barnard's history from its founding to the present day.<ref>{{cite web |title=About Us |url=http://archives.barnard.edu/about-us |website=BLAIS |publisher=barnard.edu |access-date=June 30, 2016 |archive-date=July 15, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160715041256/http://archives.barnard.edu/about-us |url-status=dead}}</ref> Among the collections are the [[Ntozake Shange]] papers.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Schuessler |first1=Jennifer |title=Ntozake Shange Archive Goes to Barnard |url=http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2016/04/15/ntozake-shange-archive-goes-to-barnard/ |access-date=June 30, 2016 |newspaper=New York Times |date=April 15, 2016 |archive-date=April 24, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160424032636/http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2016/04/15/ntozake-shange-archive-goes-to-barnard/ |url-status=live}}</ref>

=== Zine collection<span class="anchor" id="Zine collection"></span> ===

The Barnard Zine Library is a unit of the Barnard Library and Academic Information Systems (BLAIS). Zine collections target primarily female, default queer, intentionally of color, and gender expansive topics. In 2004, it became the first zine library in the United States to be fully cataloged in the [[OCLC]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=February 2008 |title=Press Release {{!}} Barnard Zine Library |url=https://zines.barnard.edu/press-release |access-date=November 21, 2023 |website=Barnard College Library |archive-date=November 21, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231121180046/https://zines.barnard.edu/press-release |url-status=dead}}</ref> It opened for circulation in 2008, and holds roughly 5,000 processed zines as of 2018.<ref>{{Cite web |title=About the Collection {{!}} Barnard Zine Library |url=https://zines.barnard.edu/about-collection#:~:text=When%20did%20Barnard%20start%20the,the%20zines%20onto%20the%20shelves. |access-date=November 21, 2023 |website=zines.barnard.edu}}</ref> The library supports the student-run Barnard Zine Club.<ref>Freedman, Jenna.
