Lilly Library: Your Ultimate Destination for Research Help, Resources, and Information
Are you a student or researcher looking for reliable resources to support your academic pursuits? Look no further than Lilly Library! As part of the Indiana University Bloomington Libraries system, we offer a wealth of information and research assistance to help you achieve your goals.
Our library is named after Eli Lilly, an Indiana native who founded the pharmaceutical company bearing his name. The library was established in 1960 and has since become one of the premier research libraries in the United States. Our collections include rare books, manuscripts, maps, photographs, and other materials that span centuries of human history.
At Lilly Library, we are committed to providing our patrons with exceptional service. Our staff includes experienced librarians who are available to assist with research questions and provide guidance on using our resources effectively. We also offer workshops and training sessions on topics such as citation management software and database searching techniques.
One of our primary goals is to make our collections accessible to as many people as possible. To this end, we have digitized many items from our collections so that they can be accessed online from anywhere in the world. We also offer interlibrary loan services so that patrons can request materials from other libraries if they are not available at Lilly Library.
In addition to our traditional library services, we also host exhibitions throughout the year that showcase items from our collections. These exhibitions cover a wide range of topics including literature, art history, science fiction/fantasy literature etc., providing visitors with an opportunity to engage with rare materials in person.
