Welcome to the Syracuse University Library! As an active partner in the University’s mission, the Library is a center of discovery – entrepreneurial, knowledge driven, and timeless. The Library’s collections and services enable learning, scholarship and knowledge creation. This web site is a crucial tool in that process.
Library.syr.edu is designed to provide the latest news and research tools available at Syracuse University Library and to deliver quickly and conveniently the information you need for your academic work. If you are a current SU student, faculty, or staff member, you will find the Library’s 25,000 subscription online journals, databases, and e-books accessible here, enabling you to read and download articles, books, and other sources from any computer, regardless of your location on or off campus.
To meet all your information needs, you will want to visit the Library in person. Here you will find a wealth of information -- books, maps, video, and other physical collections and exhibits -- as well as our extensive special collections. Now, more than ever, the Library is bustling with activity as students visit our new Learning Commons, explore new technologies, prepare group presentations, find a quiet place to study, or recharge at Pages, the Library café.
I am particularly interested in hearing your suggestions about how we might improve your library experience. To make an appointment, please call 315.443.2573 or feel free to send your comments using our Suggestion Box.
Whether you visit on the web or in person, I hope you will get to know us. Our dedicated and knowledgeable librarians and staff look forward to assisting you. I wish you the very best in all your academic pursuits!

Dean of Libraries & University Librarian
