Folke Bernadotte Memorial Library & Special Collections

The faculty and staff of the Folke Bernadotte Memorial Library support the development of critical thinking, academic inquiry, the open exchange of ideas, and the pursuit of independent lifelong learning. We achieve this through one-on-one research assistance and a robust instruction program, which helps students develop vital information literacy skills. We provide a wide range of resources through a carefully curated collection, as well as access to collections at other libraries. The library subscribes to thousands of print and electronic periodicals, core disciplinary journals, and hundreds of scholarly online databases and archival collections to support academic and curricular research. Our collections also include books, government publications, recorded music, and streaming video. The library houses the College and Lutheran Church Archives and provides flexible spaces for studying and learning.

College and Lutheran Church Archives

Archives at Gustavus make materials available for research and study. Collections include manuscripts, photographs, recordings, and digital materials. Students, faculty, and outside researchers interact with these primary sources. Archives staff assist researchers with collection access, and the archivist provides customized instructional sessions for courses across the curriculum.
