Special Edition - 4 April 2017
UN Research Guides In April 2015, we issued a special edition of our newsletter highlighting the various research guides produced by the UN Libraries in New York, Geneva and Vienna. We have now updated our original listing and added additional research guides / LibGuides / Biblioguías from the Library of the International Labour Organization (ILO), the Knowledge and Library Services Section of the UN Economic Commission of Africa (ECA), the Libraries of the Economic and Social Commission for Latin American and the Caribbean (ECLAC) as well as our own UNRIC Library Backgrounders. Below please find links to all guides in alphabetical order starting with the English ones (ca. 150 different topics), followed by French and Spanish (both ca. 70 different topics):
