To supplement our collection of expatriate life stories, the EAC houses a small but growing library of print, audio-visual, and electronic resources. The primary focus is on providing volunteers and researchers on-site access to complementary material about the various aspects of expatriate life. The library comprises books and other materials donated to the EAC and items purchased by the EAC. The EAC library includes:
- reference books (atlases, dictionaries, etc.);
- academic books on topics related to expatriation;
- books related to expatriate social studies (including TCKs), the historical background and collections held in the archive;
- books published by researchers who used the EAC collections;
- expat memoirs (often part of a collection);
- expat fiction.
Of particular interest in the library is the EAC’s growing collection of theses, dissertations and academic articles on topics related to expatriation and/or that were written by researchers who used the EAC collections.
