The East Baton Rouge Parish Library provides a collection of over a million books, thousands of magazines, and a wide selection of non-print materials to meet the interests of all the citizens it serves. Readers can find best-selling fiction as well as the classics, and a tremendous range of non-fiction books — from history, current events, travel and biography to science, religion, languages, the arts, hobbies, and self-help. Some of these books are published in large print.
Reference books are denoted by either an asterisk (*) or the letters "Ref" in the computer catalog and on the spine of each book above the call number. They are for in-building use only.
Many of the most popular items for children and adults can be found in the Library's Audio-Visual Collection, available at all libraries.
