Comments: The Astronomy Library was destroyed by bushfire on 18 January 2003. Library staff are working with staff of the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics to rebuild the collection.
Some older material is located in the WK Hancock Building. The Siding Spring Observatory collection is housed in the 40" Telescope's Dome, with serials on the ground floor and monographs, sky charts, catalogues and atlases upstairs. There is a small collection of CD ROMs in the 40" console.
