The college library is one of the most important university libraries specialized in legal sciences in the country and provides its services to faculty members in the college and to university affiliates and researchers in various state departments.
The library was established in 1934 AD. It expanded significantly after postgraduate studies began in 1967-1968, and the library’s share of financial allocations increased, enabling it to obtain references and to subscribe to many periodicals in various languages. It became a special section for references, periodicals and postgraduate students.

At the present time, it contains (32651) printed books in different languages, namely Arabic, French and English. In addition to what the library includes of United Nations publications and legal periodicals, which amounted to 189 periodicals in Arabic and other foreign languages. It also contains hundreds of master’s and doctoral dissertations that have been completed at the Faculty of Law. In the year 2004/2005, the library witnessed a significant qualitative development, as it was repaired and restored to its building, as well as providing it with modern scientific resources and advanced computers, and it was connected to the Internet, and this was through the material and moral support that was provided to the college by the International Institute for Human Rights in Chicago.
