Containing 500,000 pages of digital content freely available to search, browse and download, this is a significant step in furthering access to our collections for anyone who wants to use them.
The site includes digitised and born-digital items from our flagship collections such as The Women's Library, the Hall-Carpenter Archives and the Charles Booth Archive, as well as key Economic History collections of official statistics. But there is much, much more to discover! Take a look and see what you find...
LSE Digital Library
This new platform provides access to the full range of nationally significant collections available on our previous Digital Library, as well as exciting new resources and a suite of enhanced user features.
A video guide has been made to help users and ensure that search and discovery of Digital Library content is now easier than ever.
We are eager to work with researchers using our collections so we can further develop the site to support teaching, learning and research. Get in touch!
Niamh Tumelty, Director of LSE Library:
I am immensely proud to see our unique collections showcased brilliantly in the new LSE Digital Library. It’s a big step forward in making our Digital Library collections more discoverable and accessible. The new platform is designed for use for everyone - the general public and digital scholars, and we are really looking forward to seeing the new and exciting ways that our users will engage with our digital collections.
