A Campus in the Heart of Paris
The École nationale des chartes - PSL is located in the 2nd arrondissement of Paris, an area rich in history and heritage institutions.
The École is right next to the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, the Institut National de l'Histoire de l'Art, the Institut National du Patrimoine, the École du Louvre, the Ministry of Culture and the Service Interministériel des Archives de France, in the Marais district.
An Exceptional Library
The library was founded in 1846 to welcome the École’s students and academic staff. It is widely recognised for its wealth of material in sciences auxiliary to history. The library’s collections have been awarded the national CollEX label, ‘Collections d’excellence pour la recherche’.
Unusually for a study and research library, it offers open access to almost all its 145,000 volumes.
