The collection

The OECD Library & Archives collection dates from 1947. It includes records from the Committee for European Economic Co-operation (CEEC) and the Organisation for European Economic Co-operation (OEEC), predecessors of today's OECD.

The collection contains items which document the Organisation's work including agendas and minutes of Council and committee meetings, background documents, technical and working papers, publications, press information, and Secretary-Generals’ speeches.

Consulting the collection

External researchers and postgraduate students are welcome to consult OECD publications and archival material, on the OECD premises by appointment.

To plan your visit to the OECD, please complete the online request form and submit it to library&archives@oecd.org.

A professional information specialist will be available to assist you. 

Unclassified documents and those that have been declassified from 1990 onwards are available online at Official Unclassified OECD Documents.
