The Social Work Electronic Library (SWEL) is located in room 111 of Building A of the School of Social Work Complex. By providing access to the UT Arlington Library's growing collection of digital research resources, the Library supports teaching, learning, and research.

In the Social Work building, space prohibits having a traditional library with books and journals, so we've defined our "Library" as one with electronic resources, along with a social sciences librarian who has the expertise to guide students and faculty to the best resources.

The librarian is also knowledgeable about unique materials housed in the other UT Arlington Library. Stop by for suggestions regarding Web sites and tips for using search engines or databases.
