Moderná funkcionalistická budova Slovenskej národnej knižnice

Budova je osadená na mestskom kopci kultúry a vzdelania - Hostihore, je neprehliadnuteľná. Sídelná budova Slovenskej národnej knižnice bola postavená v rokoch 1964 až 1975 podľa projektu Dušan Kuzmu a Antona Cimmermanna. Patrí k dominantám mesta Martin - je 42 metrov vysoká, 110 metrov dlhá a má štrnásť podlaží. Postavená bola technológiou zdvíhaných stropov a je obložená betónovými fasádnymi obkladmi. V interiéri prevláda biela, oranžová a modrá farba, na vnútornej a vonkajšej výzdobe sa podieľali viacerí významní slovenskí výtvarníci ako Jozef Kostka, Fraňo Štefunko, Vincent Hložník, Vladimír Kompánek a Milan Laluha. Elena Bellušová je autorkou bieleho sadrového reliéfu so zlatým zdobením nazvaného Zlatá niť, ktorý sa nachádza v univerzálnej študovni.

Do roku 2000 bola súčasťou Matice slovenskej. Dnes je samostatnou inštitúciou so štatútom depozitnej a konzervačnej knižnice SR. Je zároveň literárno-archívnym, literárno-muzejným, biografickým, vzdelávacím a metodickým pracoviskom so špecializovaným reštauračným pracoviskom. Vnútorná i vonkajšia výzdoba ponúka diela viacerých významných výtvarníkov. Reliéf nad vstupným vchodom je dielom bratov Hložníkovcov, pod ním stojaca socha Povodeň Jozefa Kostku. V depozitoch SNK, predovšetkým vo výškovej štrnásťpodlažnej časti je uložených viac ako 5,4 milióna dokumentov rôzneho typu. Medzi nimi mnohé slovacikálne unikáty a viac ako polstovka tzv. inkunábulí - tlačí z 15. storočia.
