About The Hermetic Library at Hermetic.com

The collection

The Hermetic Library was created in 1996, in the early days of the commercial Internet, and is one of the most comprehensive and popular resources on the Internet for the kind of information in its collection. Hermetic.com is justifiably famous, and perhaps a little infamous, as the source for an amazing collection of information useful to every researcher and student of esoteric studies and the modern Western tradition. Many students over the last decade found their start and much information useful to them by perusing the materials of The Hermetic Library and started their own electronic libraries by downloading pages and pages of content for their use and research.

The collection is, by and large, of a spiritual focus but not the areas of spirituality that you will generally see within the mainstream of American culture. The collection at the library houses materials related to hermeticism in a broad sense.

If you are the creator of an item you would like to donate to the collection, whether it be a piece of poetry, a series of journals, or digital artwork, relating to the Spirit, or would like to nominate a particular luminary who might want their work to be included, you can discuss that with us via or check out our Contact page.
