The Harold B. Lee Library (1973- ) is the library on the campus of Brigham Young University, and is responsible for providing students and the community with valuable resources for research, media projects, and personal use.

The library building was expanded in 1976 and 2000, and continues to provide students and faculty access to scholarly materials.
