ENSM has two library centers at its Le Havre and Marseille campuses. Access to the libraries at Centrale Nantes and the IUT de Saint-Malo allows all ENSM students to benefit from a wide range of resources throughout their studies and to access materials that are useful for completing their degrees.
Discover the 2025 Activity Report for the ENSM’s library centers and their wide range of activities.
Student-Friendly Workspaces
The ENSM’s library centers offer students a quiet, well-equipped, and welcoming work environment, ideal for conducting research, preparing for classes, and studying during exam periods. The spaces are organized into areas for individual and group work to meet students’ various needs.
Relaxation areas are also available, allowing students to alternate between work and rest.
As places dedicated to study, the resource centers are based on principles of respect: respect for quiet, for the facilities, for other users, and for the staff.
They provide valuable support for academic success, complementing the instruction provided at ENSM.
