The IDW Founders Collection enhances comics at SDSU.

The Library is launching a new website on August 1, to better align with the campus's site.

A full-text research database that offers essential content covering race-related issues

Heads up! The 2nd floor of Love Library will be completely closed from June 5 to June 9. This includes access to the staircases, so be prepared to use the elevators to move around.

The San Diego Computer Museum (http://www.computer-museum.org/) donated its collection to the San Diego State University Library in 2005 and, since then, materials from that collection have been used occasionally in library exhibitions and public programs. The collection is currently unprocessed and unavailable for use by the public.

Special Collections and University Archives is beyond thrilled to announce our acquisition of a collection of cover art from rare Mexican pulp mini-comics!

Special Collections is home to the Ernst Zinner Historic Astronomy Collection. This world-class collection contains some of the oldest and rarest titles in the library, including thirteen incunabula (books printed before 1501), the first edition of Nicolaus Copernicus’ seminal text, De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium (1543), and Tycho Brahe’s Astronomiae Instauratae Mechanica (1602).

November is Coming! And this year, with it comes another national election in the United States. We thought it would be fun to raise awareness about our democratic system by taking a look at some comic books that explore democracy and voting in the United States.

In honor of Banned Books Week, Special Collections invites you to consider how dominant power structures have the ability to shape history and society by restricting access to information.

In 2020, we celebrate 100 years since the ratification of the 19th amendment, the most significant expansion of voting rights in United States history.
