Bibliothèque de l'Assemblée Nationale, Parliamentary research library in Palais Bourbon, France.
The Bibliothèque de l'Assemblée Nationale maintains two million documents, including books, periodicals, and official publications within the neoclassical Palais Bourbon building.
Established in 1796 during the French Revolution, the library originated from nationalized private collections and was initially housed at the Tuileries Palace.
The library holds manuscripts from the 9th century, including original versions of Rousseau's works and the Codex Borbonicus, an Aztec calendar protected by French law.
Access to the collections requires authorization and remains limited to legislators, staff members, and approved researchers conducting specific investigations.
The decorative program includes allegorical frescoes by Eugene Delacroix, depicting themes of Science, Philosophy, and Legislation throughout the library spaces.
