Produced in partnership with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and utilizing their OECD iLibrary platform, the United Nations digital collection contains over 6,000 e-books, 4,000 articles, and three databases from over 40 United Nations departments and agencies. Content is organized by theme, series title, publication year, and alphabetically. Publications can be browsed, searched, printed, and downloaded as a PDF. They can also be read online via the iLibrary viewer, an option that is free to all users. The materials support research in twentieth- and twenty-first-century history, politics, economics, social science data, and international relations. Plans are to add around 500 new titles annually.", }
