Company Overview

Binghamton University is among the nation's top 50 public universities and is recognized for its strong academic programs, distinguished faculty, and talented students. The University is one of four doctoral centers in the State University of New York system.

Binghamton University Libraries are the center of the University's intellectual community, providing a welcoming environment for the creation and management of knowledge through innovative thinking, open inquiry, and collaborative partnerships. We serve 16,000 students and more than 900 Faculty. Our collections total 2.4 million volumes and we offer a vast array of electronic resources.

Glenn G. Bartle Library houses collections in the fine arts, humanities, social sciences, and mathematical and computer science as well as Special Collections. Special Collections and University Archives is home to unique material which includes rare books, sound recordings, films, slides, realia, manuscripts, campus publications, and local history. The Science Library contains materials in the fields of science, engineering, nursing, and psychology. The University Downtown Center Library serves the College of Community and Public Affairs. The Library Annex@Conklin currently houses important older but lesser used materials in a high-density, climate controlled environment.

The Libraries feature Information Commons facilities in three library locations offering workstations with access to online research materials, productivity software, and scanning/video editing capabilities. In addition to our electronic and networked resources, we provide other web-accessible services and discovery technologies such as Ex Libris's Primo discovery platform and a digital preservation system (Rosetta).

Located hours away from major metropolitan areas such as New York City, Philadelphia, Boston, and Washington, D.C., the greater Binghamton region is a safe, friendly and affordable community that offers residents a unique blend of rural life and urban appeal.
