Library
The Library was founded along with the Scuola Normale and it has grown constantly, especially over the last 50-60 years.As an essential part of the teaching and research activities of the Scuola Normale, the Library's collection has increased most especially in those subject areas where the Normale has traditionally carried out research and teaching, like Physics and Mathematics for the Faculty of Sciences and all of the Social Sciences for the Faculty of Arts.
The collections of Information Science, bibliographies and library science are also constantly updated.
The Library's collections have increased over time not only due to the ongoing acquisitions which occupy a great deal of the library's budget every year, but also thanks to donations and legacies which scholars leave to the Scuola Normale.
A digital library is being gradually but constantly created; it contains a wide range of titles, among which many manuscripts which the Library owns and is digitalizing in order to guarantee both their conservation and, at the same time, a wider use.
