Unlike traditional libraries in Athens, the Eugenides Foundation Library specializes in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). With over 60,000 books, a digital archive, and educational programs, this library is an invaluable resource for students, professionals, and science enthusiasts.

Beyond its impressive book collection, the library also serves as a hub for scientific learning, hosting public lectures, workshops, and educational programs on topics like space exploration, robotics, and environmental science. Located next to the Athens Planetarium, this is an excellent spot for both academic research and family-friendly educational outings.
