Student affiliated visitors are not permitted entry into 5 MetroTech and Dibner Library.

The library workers of the Bern Dibner Library of Science and Technology seek to educate and support our NYU Brooklyn & Tandon community as they research within and transform their information ecosystems. We accomplish this by contributing our expertise to building collections, teaching information literacy, creating welcoming spaces, and facilitating knowledge creation.
