Sabah State Library, Public library in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia.

Sabah State Library is the state library of Sabah, headquartered on Tasik Road off Maktab Gaya Road in Luyang, Kota Kinabalu, since June 2004. It runs four regional libraries, 20 branches, 13 mobile libraries and a network of village libraries. The main library holds reading areas, study rooms and digital resource centres.

The library began in 1953 as a section of North Borneo's Broadcasting and Information Department. In 1966 it was merged with the Sabah Museum into the Libraries and Museum Department, then separated in 1972 as an independent Library Department under the Ministry of Social Welfare. It took the name Sabah State Library in 1976, moved to the Ministry of Social Services in 1982, and entered the computer era in 1987; the URICA system was launched in 1988 by minister Ariah Tengku Ahmad, and public OPAC access followed in 1990.

The library's name is Malay: Perpustakaan Negeri Sabah, and it is a state department under Sabah's Ministry of Education and Innovation, feeding into the National Library of Malaysia. Its network includes 13 mobile libraries that carry books to remote villages, plus more than 75 village-level branches set up since 1990 that combine a basic book stock with internet access for rural education.

Visitors can register at the main desk to access the collections available throughout the week. The facility is designed for study and research, with plenty of space to work and browse materials across different sections.

The library's computer era began in 1987; the URICA system was inaugurated in 1988 by social services minister Ariah Tengku Ahmad, and OPAC opened the catalogue to the public in 1990. Public internet access followed in 1995.
