The Library would be known from now on as the "King Ferdinand" University Library in Cluj. After 1920, the library collections were enriched by the donations of over 125 institutions and private individuals. One can mention the contribution of the Romanian Academy, the State Archives, the House of Schools, the Museum of the Romanian Language, etc. 1922 The most important and valuable donation is the one of the Moldavian scholar Gheorghe Sion. Between 1922 and 1923, he donated a large number (about 4500 volumes) of valuable books, reviews, manuscripts, engravings, paintings, photographies, maps, coins and medals, etc. The Gheorghe Sion' donation represents the golden archive of the Special Collections Department. 1934 The construction of the actual library building came to an end. 1961 Because of the continuous increase in the library collections and the lack of space to store them, a new and modern closed stack was built in 1961, with a storage capacity of 2 million volumes. The building of the new closed stacks is connected to the reading rooms and the old closed stacks. 1992 The automation of all library activities and services started in 1992 and the process is still in progress. A very notable step towards the new approach in dealing with the information was the creation of the IT Department within "Lucian Blaga" Central University Library.

The collections of "Lucian Blaga" Central University Library include publications and materials which are meant to help and promote the academic performance expected to be reached in each faculty and department of the "Babes-Bolyai" University from Cluj-Napoca. This is, in fact, one of the demands in the process of adaptation to the modern educational system. The library collections can be consulted within the 60 reading rooms with a capacity of 2,177 seats, both in the central building and the branch libraries. 2001 The first electronic review of the library was edited: Bibliorev. 2002 The total number of publications in the entire network (central building and the branch libraries) has reached approximately 3,600,000 volumes. 2004 - 2006 "Lucian Blaga" Central University, as member of a university libraries consortium, bought several scientific databases.In the same period, there have been created CD-ROMs of our own bibliographical databases. 2006 In February 2006, the version of ALEPH 500 library integrated system was changed with the new one, ALEPH 16, with interface in Romanian, Hungarian and English. 2007 - 2008 Start-up of building rearrangement works. 2008 Creation of the DIGITAL LIBRARY. 2010 Making the digital library available through DSpace interface.
