Sherman Art Library was developed in 1929, as part of Carpenter Hall, and is connected to the Baker-Berry Library. The library supports the subject areas of Art History, and Studio Art, as well as the Hood Museum of Art. The extensive collection of books, periodicals, and online resources, includes exhibition catalogs from art museums and galleries around the world, as well as the Art Special Collection, which features artists' books, facsimiles, catalogues raisonnés, and other rare items.

Reference assistance is available in Sherman, and books may be checked out at the Baker-Berry circulation desk.
