Slavic & East European Materials Project (SEEMP)

About

Formerly a hybrid committee that a represented a partnership between ASEEES-CLIR and the Center for Research Libraries(CRL), SEEMP is no longer a functioning CLIR Subcommittee. Beginning in 2025, CRL created a new structure of nine Global Collections Committees (GCCs).

The new GCC for the field is called the Slavic and Eastern European Collections Committee (SEECC). We hope that the representative leading this committee will participate as a CLIR executive committee member going forward.
