The European Union has established a network of depository
libraries across the US to provide Americans with access to many of its official
publications. All depositories automatically receive, free of charge, one copy
of most EU periodical and monograph publications. The collections are available
to the public during each library's regular hours of operation, free of charge
and without any conditions. Many of the libraries also offer interlibrary loan
services.
The official publications contain information ranging from
policy developments in all sectors of EU activity to statistics on trade, demographics,
agriculture, transport, energy and economic indicators.
Of particular importance is the Official
Journal of the European Union, the approximate equivalent of the US
Federal Register. The "C" section of the Official Journal
includes important notices and other information; the "C E" electronic
(only) section contains proposed legislation; the "C A" section contains
special annexes to legislation and notices of competitions for EU employment;
the "L" section has the final texts of legislation. Annual indices and
the Directory
of Community Legislation in Force provide subject and numeric reference
access to legislation. Depository collections routinely receive the "C"
and "L" sections and indices and may receive the "C A" section
by request. The "C E" section is available on EUR-Lex--the
portal to EU law--as are all versions of the Official Journal
from 1998 to present free of charge. Depositories also hold the legislative proposals
and communications of the Commission in their original
"COM" document form, as well as reports and debates of the European
Parliament (also available on EUROPARL),
opinions of the European Economic
and Social Committee and decisions of the Court of Justice (also available
on Curia). European
Documentation Centres elsewhere in the world may be found here.
