We help IU researchers navigate the expanding landscape of open scholarship to make your scholarly work more widely and freely available to other researchers.

Students consulting with subject specialists

We curate subject-specific research guides and assist researchers of all experience levels as they engage with our collections.

We hope your libraries will be your home away from home here at IU. We want you to succeed. Sometimes that looks like working on your laptop for hours on end in one of our spaces, and sometimes it looks like eating pizza with new friends at our weekly Friday Finish.
