Provided herein are methods of normalizing nucleic acid libraries. The method uses nucleic acid probes with nucleic acid sequences that are complementary to one or more of these adaptor sequences are added to the nucleic acids libraries. The probes can hybridize to the adaptor sequences in the single stranded nucleic acid molecules derived from the libraries to form hybridization complexes. The probes are conjugated to a first binding member, which can interact with a second binding member that is conjugated to solid supports. The solid supports can then be collected and the single stranded nucleic acid molecules can be recovered in a volume of elution buffer to reach a desired concentration. As compared to standard methods, the methods are more efficient and cost-effective.
