The Atlanta University Center (AUC) Robert W. Woodruff Library is a library in Atlanta which serves the four members of the Atlanta University Center, the world's oldest consortium of historically black colleges and universities[1] (Clark Atlanta University, Morehouse College, Spelman College) and the Interdenominational Theological Center.[2][3][4] The library, constructed in 1982, is named for Robert Winship Woodruff, former CEO of the Coca Cola Company.[5] In 2010, the library completed a $16.2 million renovation, partly funded by donations from the Coca Cola Company.[6][7][8]

The library is a member of ARCHE, Lyrasis, OCLC and the HBCU Library Alliance. It is a participant in the Georgia state library network, GALILEO. In 2016, the library won the Excellence in Academic Libraries Award from the Association of College and Research Libraries, the first HBCU to win the award.[9]
