This facility houses texts related to preclinical medicine—subjects covered in early-year exams.
It is located on the Faculty's entrance level and is accessible directly from the foyer. It spans two levels, featuring open-shelf areas accessible to the public.
The entrance level houses all services: reception, reference desk, and computers for accessing and consulting the University Library System's electronic resources, as well as user lockers accessible via personal passwords.
The lower level is dedicated entirely to reading and study.
There are 220 seats in total: 205 bookable via the Affluences app, 13 PC workstations (also bookable via the app), and 4 workstations available without a reservation.

Periodical holdings location:
Upper level: 2002 onwards
Lower level: 2000–2001
Issues prior to 2001 are kept in off-site storage and are available upon request.
The most recently acquired items (see list at the bottom) may be requested from the library staff for consultation or for a short-term loan of up to 15 days.

Full services are provided by library staff Monday through Friday until 4:00 PM (until 2:00 PM on Fridays).
Outside these hours, the library remains open solely for study, reading, and consulting available materials; users are asked to place items on the designated trolley near the entrance desk after use. The photocopying service is available.
