The Bayou Building is also home to the Alfred R. Neumann Library.[17] UHCL’s library, the 80,000-square-foot (7,400 m2) Neumann Library contains over 480,000 volumes, 1.8 million microform items, and over 1000 journal and periodical subscriptions. The library has online access to over 100 subscription-only research databases and the Texshare interlibrary loan service which allows students to check out items from any academic or public library in Texas. Additionally, the library houses the university archives, which includes the NASA Johnson Space Center History Collection. The core collection of Neumann Library was formed in 1974 through the purchase of two defunct libraries' collections: •60,000 volumes from Saint Joseph's College in Maryland emphasizing religion, art, and nursing •123,000 volumes from Parsons College in Iowa focusing on the liberal arts.

The Neumann Library has grown since to a multi-disciplinary collection of more than 515,000 volumes, 1.6 million microforms, more than 4,0321 active periodical subscriptions, and a variety of electronic databases and audiovisuals.
