Libraries
 

Welcome from the Dean





 
You are now linked to one of the finest research libraries in the nation. Whether you are using our online catalog to search for books, reading an e-journal, or seeking assistance from a librarian online, you'll find the information you need here.

As the electronic gateway to the IUB Libraries, this site complements not only the in-person services you'll find at 18 libraries throughout the Bloomington campus, but also our great collections. Discover the variety and richness of all that we offer: Read a medieval manuscript in the Lilly Library. Meet with teammates in the Information Commons.  Listen to music online at the Cook Music Library. 

Teaching and learning occur every hour at Indiana University, and integrating the IUB Libraries into these core activities guides our daily work. We are motivated by the desire to provide you the tools you need to succeed. 

I invite you to explore this site, and visit our libraries. Discover for yourself the abundant information we provide the members of our academic community, citizens of the state, and researchers worldwide.
