Observatoire de Paris

The Paris Observatory Library

It is one of the most beautiful astronomical-astrophysical libraries in the world. The Library has two core missions: providing researchers with the most complete and relevant documentation and services, preserving and enhancing a 350-year-old heritage which still expands today.
