Public Library of La Plata National University, Academic library at National University of La Plata, Argentina.

The Public Library of the National University of La Plata occupies a building inaugurated in 1935 on Plaza Rocha, between Avenida 7 and diagonal 78; it was designed by the Dirección de Arquitectura of Argentina's Ministry of Public Works and also housed the School of Fine Arts. It has five public reading rooms and a newspaper archive with 3,600 periodical publications and 1,080 newspaper titles.

The institution began in 1884 as a provincial public library under Francisco P. Moreno's leadership and became part of the National University of La Plata in 1905. This merger transformed a community resource into an academic institution serving university research and education.

The Cervantina collection holds 654 volumes of works by Miguel de Cervantes, assembled as part of the library's patrimonial holdings. In 2018 the library submitted it to UNESCO's Memory of the World programme for the Latin America and Caribbean region. The collection is consulted in the special collections area.

Visitors can use five public reading rooms, access a periodicals section with thousands of titles, and browse digital databases through the online catalog. It helps to check opening hours before visiting and familiarize yourself with the layout to find resources efficiently.

The microfilm reader kept here is one of the few still operating in Argentina and has been used in forensic examinations and research. With it the library microfilmed dozens of Argentine newspapers, building a catalogue of more than 2,000 titles.
