The A. H. Clifford Mathematics Research Library is an independent unit of the Howard Tilton Memorial Library of Tulane University. The library is located on the 4th floor of Gibson Hall in the Department of Mathematics.
The library was rededicated in 1994 in honor of Alfred Hoblitzelle Clifford. The development and expansion to its present capacity was largely made possible through a Grant of $575,000 by the Ford Foundation to the Department of Mathematics through Tulane University. The grant was awarded in June 1964 and expired on December 31, 1967.
The library serves the faculty and graduate students of the Mathematics Department and all other sections of Tulane University in mathematics oriented research, as well as the New Orleans academic community.
