Temple University Libraries has been a Federal Depository Library since 1947. Our mission is to provide access to government information. 

Our collection serves our constituents' needs for government information in accordance with the requirements defined by the Federal Depository Library System. Anyone can use our materials either in person or through the links provided on our Research Guides and catalog, but you must be a Temple student, faculty member or alumnus to borrow circulating materials. 

We encourage members of the community to take advantage of our expertise. Access to government documents can be arranged during the library's regular hours.
