The IIRE library

We have a steadily growing library with over 25,000 books (16,000 titles) and several thousand periodicals housed on three floors. Most of the books are in one of the IIRE's three working languages, English, French and Spanish; but there are also significant collections in German, Portuguese and Italian, with smaller collections in several other languages. A substantial part of this library is now computer-indexed, facilitating easy cross-searching by topic, author and language. The work of completing the computer cataloguing is now under way.

We welcome large- and small-scale donations to our library. Please contact us if you have books that you are willing to part with that might be useful.

Besides the use made of the library by our lecturers and students, it is available to scholars for consultation by appointment.
