Isabel Briggs Myers Memorial Library

The Isabel Briggs Myers Memorial Library is the largest collection of information and materials dedicated to the MBTI® instrument and personality type in the world. The library's holdings have been maintained since 1976, when the co-founder of the Center for Applications of Psychological Type, Mary McCaulley, Ph.D., started the main collection.

Today, we continue Dr. McCaulley's work by acquiring new materials and making them accessible to the type community globally. To date, the library has more than 8,000 articles, over 1,800 theses and dissertations, and more than 900 books on psychological type and related topics, as well as periodicals, conferences, and more.

We welcome your feedback and questions. Contact the librarian with your comments by sending an email to library@myersbriggs.org.

Journal of Psychological Type®

The Journal of Psychological Type® was an international publication, founded in 1977, and the premiere journal for research, theory, and applications in the field of psychological type until 2015. Today, the Journal publishes an annual Research Digest that summarizes selected research published in academic, peer-reviewed journals from the previous year, with the MBTI instruments.

Through MILO you can find all previous editions of the Journal of Psychological Type from 1977 to 2015, in addition to past publications from the British Association of Psychological Type (BAPT) and TypeFace.
