Central Library UNAM

The Central Library of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) is the main library in the Ciudad Universitaria Campus. It holds one of the largest collections in Mexico. It has a multidisciplinary approach for all the university courses from the adjacent faculties. The building is covered with the mosaic mural Historical Representation of Culture, created by the Mexican artist Juan O'Gorman. His unique masterpiece has become the most iconic building from the UNAM. In July 2007, the UNESCO proclaimed the Central Library, along with the Central Campus of the University City, as World Heritage. The Central Library hosts some of the administrative offices of the General Libraries Directorate of the UNAM. The library opened to users on April 5, 1956. After 25 years, it underwent its first remodel (1981–1983), changing from closed to open shelves.
