The IHES library was inaugurated on 23 May 2003 and bears the name of the Institute’s second director, thus honoring the memory of Nicolaas Hendrik Kuiper. The library was created as soon as the Institute moved to Bures-sur-Yvette and was initially situated in the music pavilion in the Bois-Marie site. It is now located on the first floor of the science building and the view it offers of the surrounding woods is conducive to study and inspiration for its readers.
The Nicolaas Hendrik Kuiper Library is specialized in the fields of mathematics, theoretical physics, and any other science related to them. It welcomes :
- Permanent Professors and visiting researchers of the IHES;
- Doctoral students, post-doctoral students, researchers, or staff of the University of Paris-Saclay;
- Users outside Université Paris-Saclay having received the authorization of the Director.
