The Global Libraries Program aims to develop the archaeological literary collections of low-income institutions. By supporting such libraries, we hope to assist archaeological and cultural heritage management students and professionals to undertake and excel at their study and work. There are currently 50 libraries from 40 different countries receiving donations.

The Global Libraries Program relies on the donations of WAC members, philanthropic organizations and members of the general public. Any book/journal/CD/video/etc or subscriptions are gratefully received. Alternatively, we are in need of monetary donations to support postage and to purchase useful publications for each library. Due to the high cost of postage, digital donations are highly requested. Please contact us if you would like to donate.

Global Libraries Committee: Ashley Sands, James P. McCarthy, Alinah K. Segobye, Jim Robertson, Miguel Alejandro Aguilar Diaz, Cornelius Holtorf, Wilhelm Londono, Ingrid Ahlgren, and Shanti Pappu. (Dr. Sally K. May formerly chaired the committee).
