NASA is shutting down its largest research library at the Goddard Space Flight Center due to budget cuts and campus consolidation, risking the future of tens of thousands of historical and scientific documents. Over the next 60 days, the agency will review library holdings, with some materials set for storage while others may be discarded. This closure is part of a broader reorganization plan initiated before the Trump administration, aiming to save $10 million annually by consolidating resources. Following this closure, only three NASA libraries will remain operational nationwide.
