Tallinn University Academic Library (Estonian: Tallinna Ülikooli Akadeemiline Raamatukogu) is a research library in Estonia with many fields of knowledge, except construction and agriculture. It is located in Tallinn, the capital city of Estonia.

The library was founded in April 1946 as the Central Library of the Estonian Academy of Sciences.[citation needed] The main building of the Tallinn University Academic Library was designed by architects Uno Tölpus and Paul Madalik and was built in 1963.[citation needed] Although the library is relatively young, the Library of St. Olaf's Church (founded in 1552) makes up the oldest part of the collections, including 56 incunables dating back to the 15th century and thousands of volumes published between the 16th and 19th centuries.[citation needed] Overall, the library's collection has over 2.6 million physical items.[1] The number of readers is nearly 50,000.

Over the years the library has gone through several administrative changes. In the 1990s the library used name Estonian Academic Library (Estonian: Eesti Akadeemiline Raamatukogu).[citation needed] In 2003, library become a structural unit of Tallinn University.

The library collects and holds printed and other documents published in Estonia, creating as complete collections of these materials as possible. The library is entitled to an obligatory copy of each and every publication issued in Estonia.[citation needed] As one of the founding members of the Estonian Libraries Network Consortium (ELNET Consortium), the library is one of the leaders in the modernisation of the libraries in the digital era.
