The Washington State University libraries contain useful resources for students and faculty interested in Psychology. Most of these resources can be found in the Holland and Terrell (HaT) Libraries, but many (particularly those oriented towards medicine or neurology) are in the Owen Science Library, and still more (particularly those concerned with testing and education) can be found in the Brain Education Library in Cleveland Hall. If you have any questions not answered on the WSU Libraries website or would like to request a book, journal, conference proceeding or some other resource on this subject, please contact your subject liaison librarian, Christy Zlatos . There also exists a set of handouts on Owen Science Library resources, Holland and Terrell Library resources, and Brain Education Library resources in psychology. For questions about the WSU's psychology program, please see the WSU Department of Psychology.
