Library

The Library of Facultad de Ciencias Astronómicas y Geofísicas (FCAG) is considered one of the most important Latin American libraries in the field of Geophysical and Astronomical Sciences. Its purpose is to assist students of the degree courses in Astronomy and Geophysics in their studies and to provide the necessary support for the numerous research and teaching projects which are carried out at FCAG.


The library contains bibliographical pieces about the topics of the various specialisations, such as Astronomy, Geophysics, Physics and Mathematics. Among these pieces, there are 10,280 titles of monographs, books, atlases, catalogues, ephemeredes and theses; 273 titles of Argentine publications; and 1,361 titles of overseas publications. In addition, there are approximately 600 maps of diverse subject matter.


The library uses the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules and a classification system known as the Universal Decimal Classification.


As it is a public library, you are only required to bring your national identity card to have access. If you are doing other degree courses at Universidad Nacional de La Plata, you can consult our collections through inter-library loans from your respective faculty libraries.


The library is open from Monday to Friday, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information, go to the Library Page.
