Located in the Information Commons, on the 1st floor of the Library, this collection contains books on topics that lend themselves to an argument of some kind. Many contain overviews of the issue, along with summaries of the key positions (and the individuals who promote or refute them). Two series that cover a broad range of subjects are "Opposing Viewpoints" and "Contemporary World Views."
