Sciences Po Bibliothèque

Sciences Po Bibliothèque is the research library for the Sciences Po university in the 7th arrondissement of Paris, holding extensive collections focused on social sciences and humanities. The facility offers access to over 200 electronic databases along with specialized research materials for students and scholars.

The library was established alongside Sciences Po university when it was founded in 1872 as an academic institution. It grew into a major research center for political science and social sciences across France.

The library holds collections that document how French political thought and social science scholarship have evolved over time. Walking through the stacks, you encounter materials that show the changing ways people have studied society and power.

The library is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM and Saturday from 9:00 AM to 5:45 PM. Study spaces can be reserved online in advance, allowing you to secure a workspace that suits your research needs.

The library operates a rotating thematic selection system that changes four times each year, featuring carefully chosen resources on specific academic subjects. This approach lets visitors access materials focused on current research priorities in a structured way.
