If you are expecting official visitors from your country and they are interested in FAO literature and information, we would be pleased to show them the library collections and the virtual library information products.

Photocopy machines are available for your use, for the reproduction of FAO and non-FAO materials within copyright limits.

You may borrow up to three books for 15 days.

If you need expert assistance for your research, our reference librarians can help you find what you need. 

Please contact FAO library reference or call 0657053784.

We can assist you in locating FAO’s electronic and print documents.  Reproduction of individual FAO documentation is also available at reasonable cost.

You are invited to use the services of the Fisheries Branch Library and the Forestry Information Centre if you require detailed research on either of these subject specialties.

The library has subscriptions to many databases specific to FAO areas of expertise which can be consulted in the library.  Please contact FAO Library Reference for further information.

The catalogue provides access to knowledge resources available in the library:  books, reports, journals, all FAO documents and publications (from 1945 to the present) and world agricultural and food resources.  It also provides links to electronic full text where available.
