The Sudan Library is a section of the library of the University of Khartoum. It serves as the national library of Sudan, and is also a university research library.

It is a depository of all Sudanese publications since a legal deposit act came into effect in 1966. The library also collects works of Sudanese authors and works about Sudan published abroad. Its catalogue represents a retrospective national bibliography. In 2018, the library was one of the first to contribute to the Sudan Memory Project.

The library sustained heavy damage during the Sudanese civil war.
