Poised on the shore of the Red Sea, the University Library sits at the academic crossroads of the campus. Our prize-winning architecture has created a 24/7 academic home with a translucent marble exterior and spacious interior. Our staff provides various services and resources, and you can browse our research, presentations, and reports in our Research Repository collection. This collection also contains our annual reports and strategic plans (links are to the most recent).
