About the Digital Library

The Auburn University Digital Library is a specialized unit of the Auburn University Libraries. Its purpose is to develop accessible digital collections of materials that support the teaching and research of Auburn faculty and students, and that, in turn, further the mission of Auburn University. Based in the Ralph Brown Draughon Library, the Auburn University Digital Library draws on a variety of collections—including the rich holdings of Auburn University’s Special Collections and Archives Department—and makes them available to educators and students in Alabama and beyond. The Auburn University Digital Library has also played a leading role in promoting digital library projects with other colleges, universities, and libraries in Alabama.
