Cornell University Library is at the crossroads of discovery and connection for students, faculty, and researchers from around the world. In our welcoming spaces, we connect scholars with each other, with rich collections, and with librarians who are research and information experts in various fields of knowledge.

As the landscape of higher education rapidly evolves, our Library strives to always be that wonderful place that inspires learning, curiosity, belonging, and interdisciplinarity. Serving as the intellectual hub of Cornell University, we aim to eliminate barriers, increase wayfinding and accessibility, and empower scholars at Cornell and beyond to do the excellent work that they do—ultimately nurturing better learners and citizens who will change the world.

On behalf of our Cornell University Library community, I invite you to explore this site and keep abreast of important improvements in our library spaces.

Thank you and stay in touch.
