Description

SEEMP (Slavic and East European Materials Project) has been preserving primary source materials that span four centuries. SEEMP and CRL acquire and maintain digital and microform materials from Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Poland, Uzbekistan and other major Slavic countries. Some Slavic languages are better represented in CRL’s collection than others; for example, the Russian collection of serials in the STEM fields are common and are frequently requested.  

CRL owns many microfiches and microfilm sets in its collection.  For example, one of the sets includes catalogs, bibliographies, and descriptions of archives in the former USSR.  CRL’s Russian Monograph collection spreads across over many subject fields. The call-number is always an “R” in the beginning and then an numeric as follows: R-15239. 

SEEMP has focused most of its attention on acquiring and preserving regional newspapers, both contemporary and historical. Many Kazakh and Uzbek newspapers were microfilmed in collaboration with SEEMP over the last few years; this has resulted in the inclusion of a long run of Central Asian newspapers. In addition, SEEMP preserved many South Slavic publications such as Politika, Nezavisne Novine, Nasa Borba, Dani, Slobodna Bosna and others on microfilm.
