The Schulich Library of Physical Sciences, Life Sciences, and Engineering (commonly referred to as Schulich Library or, just simply, Schulich) is the center for scientific information in the downtown campus. Connected with the [[Frank Dawson Adams Building]], there are study areas on each floor for independent or group study sessions which is can be convenient if you need a quiet place to study after having class in the FDA lecture hall.
==History==
Named after the family of Seymour Schulich, he generously donated funds to several schools across Canada, including McGill which houses this library and the Schulich School of Music in his honour, to help promote education. The library was built in in 1893 where it started out as the MacDonald Physics Building. It was here in this building where Ernest Rutherford conducted his Nobel Prize (1908) winning research for his investigation in the disintegration of elements and radioactive substances.
