Discovery Week at the UN Library & Archives Geneva: Knowledge, Community and Looking to the Future

Our spaces are evolving, and so are we! 

The UN Library & Archives Geneva welcomes our community of users, partners and collaborators to explore our temporary locations, learn more about our physical and digital services, and share ideas on how we can best serve you moving forward. As our building (Building B, Palais des Nations) undergoes renovation, we’re taking the opportunity to celebrate our community, reinforce our mission as a centre for research and an instrument of international understanding, and continue to evolve our services as we look to the future. 

Join us on Tuesday 7 October 2025 at our new location, Annex Bocage (Palais des Nations), where you’ll have the chance to: 

- Visit the Library’s public spaces, where users can consult resources, get support from a Librarian, or bring their laptop for study and research.  
- See first-hand some incredible treasures from our archival collection such as the Treaty of Versailles, one of many archival materials managed by the UN Archives Geneva. 
- Speak with our team about the many amazing artworks found throughout the Palais des Nations, which are managed by the Library & Archives. 
- Consult with the Library & Archives team on the resources available to support your work and research, including: 
   + Physical and online access to the Library’s collection of books, journals, UN documents and more on the diverse multilateral issues facing the world today
   + Physical and online access to the archives of the League of Nations, the United Nations, international peace movements and more; and Events and knowledge-sharing opportunities at the Knowledge & Learning Commons and on The Next Page Podcast. 
   + And, share your feedback and ideas on how we can better support you as we evolve our services at the UN Library & Archives Geneva! 

We look forward to welcoming you!
