Center for Research LibrariesThe CRL is a consortium of libraries that provides its members with access to 1 million digital resources and more than 4.5 million print publications, archives, and collections.

The CRL's strengths are in materials created outside of the U.S., with a particular focus on developing nations. Holdings include a variety of material types such as journals, dissertations, archives, and newspapers, and span a range of subject areas, with particular strengths in the areas of economics, politics, international diplomacy, physical sciences, and the history of science and technology.

The Library initiated its membership to the CRL last year and is currently in year two of a three-year subscription.

Accessing CRL Materials

CRL's digital collections are accessible through its catalogue. Other resources are available to member institutions through interlibrary loan and electronic delivery.

To access CRL items that are not online, place an interlibrary loan request through RACER and we will get the materials at no cost to you.
