Service to scholars is the primary mission of the NYU Abu Dhabi Library. We provide resources and technologies needed for research and teaching and offer assistance in their use. The NYUAD Library is fully connected to NYU Libraries e-resources in New York, providing seamless access for our global scholars.

NYU Abu Dhabi Library includes the following:

Access Services (NYUAD)(opens in a new window)

The Access Services department is responsible for overseeing the circulation of library materials, course reserves, requests from NYU Libraries collections in New York, EZ Borrow and Interlibrary Loan services.

Acquisitions (NYUAD)

The Acquisitions department oversees the procurement of all library print and electronic materials.

Archives and Special Collections (NYUAD)(opens in a new window)

Archives and Special Collections materials are available to NYUAD students, faculty, and staff, as well as qualified researchers from the UAE and abroad. Our goal is to provide access to rare and unique primary source materials that support the teaching and research needs of students and faculty, and promote scholarship and interest in the history of the UAE, the Gulf, the Arabian Peninsula, and the wider region. In addition, Archives and Special Collections also houses the University Archives of NYUAD, collecting and preserving records that document the history and development of this campus.

Digital Scholarship and Preservation (NYUAD)(opens in a new window)

The Digital Scholarship and Preservation program supports faculty, scholars, and Library partners in digitizing, archiving, and publishing scholarly content and resources in NYUAD Library’s preservation repository. The DSP is responsible for ensuring that digital archival materials are captured, stored, and preserved following international preservation standards. The DSP can shepherd digital projects from their inception to their eventual archival treatments, creating responsible lifespans for these projects and their related data. We work closely with our Archives and Special Collections department to bring historic resources into the digital world and to capture and archive new resources responsibly. We also collaborate with faculty on specialized research projects that utilize innovative approaches to library collections using digital tools and methods.

Library Administration (NYUAD)

The Library Administration Team is responsible for the overall operations and long-term strategic planning of the Library.

Research Services (NYUAD)(opens in a new window)

The Research Services team partners with faculty, staff and students on their teaching and research needs. We provide general and subject specific research expertise while helping our patrons efficiently access and navigate our resources.
