About the NU SOM Library

Nazarbayev University (NU) Main Library was established in September 2010, followed by the opening of the School of Medicine Library in June 2017.


The NU Libraries have become a centre of intellectual life at the University, offering comprehensive services in English, Kazakh, and Russian. Our extensive resources and services support the academic and research needs of students, faculty, and staff. We strive to be a world-class Library by implementing international educational and technological innovations. By providing training for Kazakhstani Librarians, we are building a network of Librarians to support the Kazakhstan 2050 strategy.
