International Material Exchange of NAL

The National Assembly Library(NAL) of the Republic of Korea started international material exchange in the 1950s, soon after the establishment of the Library in 1952.

Through the international material exchange, the NAL collects materials of overall subjects and formats. In exchange, we are sending monographs and periodicals that could help understand Korea.

As of December 2024, the National Assembly Library is exchanging materials with 182 institutions of 47 countries all over the world. Our exchange partners include national libraries, parliamentary libraries, major university libraries and research institutes.
