Last book arrival: Thursday, June 29th 2017.

The library's collection contains approximately 37,000 books. The most represented areas are mostly mathematics -- with the exception of financial mathematics and combinatorics -- and theoretical physics. The History of science is predominantly concerned with the mathematical and physical sciences, especially in the 19th and 20th centuries.

A reading committee composed of fifteen scientists selected by the Director of the IHP, each representing an area of mathematics, theoretical physics or history of Science, meets once a year to set the acquisition policy and to review the list of subscriptions.

Donations represent a significant fraction of acquired books. Donations are always accepted, provided they correspond to the thematic scope of the Library collections. If we get books that are already owned by the library, we re-dispatch them to other mathematical libraries of our network -- after agreement with the donors. Make a donation?.

Organizers of the Centre Emile Borel programs are requested to provide a list of required books ahead of the next session. These will be acquired if they are not already in the library.
