The library is the heart of any institution of higher learning and Korea University is home to several of the finest libraries in the country, providing a wealth of resources and support services to graduate as well as undergraduate students. In addition to the specialized libraries such as the Law School library, there are four main libraries -- the University Library located on the Main Campus, the Science Library on the Science Campus, the Medical Library on the Green Campus and the Seochang Library located on the Seochang Campus. Their combined holdings total over 2.6 million volumes as of 2009.
The vast majority of the libraries' holdings have been electronically catalogued on the University's AIMS system, which allows students to quickly and efficiently search for books and periodicals by author, subject or title. The AIMS system is supplemented by a CD-Net with subservers located on each campus. Students are also assisted by expert library personnel in the reference, circulation and other library departments.
Among the specialized libraries is the United Nations Depository Library, with over 320,000 volumes and periodicals published by various U.N. organizations, plus journals published by the OECD. The European Union Literature Center houses studies and other materials published by the EC and serves as a resource for research on the EC and European unification.

The Korea University Medical Center is closely associated with the Korea University Medical School. While it is hoped that students would never need the Center's services, they may be comforted to know that the care provided by the Center's two general hospitals and two teaching hospitals is the finest in Korea. Diagnostic and treatment equipment, from Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems to radiation fluoroscopes, represent the latest technologies available for the detection and treatment of disease. The four hospitals in Anam, Guro, Yeoju and Ansan have a combined capacity of about 2,000 beds.
