The selected resources in this guide relate to the holdings within the SLU Rare Books Collection. For a general introduction to the department's collections, please visit the Archives & Rare Books website.
The Rare Book Collection in Pius XII Memorial Library is the principal repository for rare printed books at Saint Louis University. The collection contains over 30,000 printed books, pamphlets, manuscripts, and broadsides.
We've made it our mission to acquire, preserve, and make available materials that, because of their age, rarity, cost, or institutional significance, are kept together for special treatment.
We are located on the third floor of Pius XII Memorial Library in Room 307.
