| If you can't find the book you want (particularly if
you are a graduate student), there are other library resources
in Seoul. The United States Information Service (USIS)
maintains a good library on the U.S., including Korea-US
relations. The British Council Library has a substantial
selection of British materials. The Social Science Research
Library in Sajik-dong has a number of books in English.
The best collection on Korea is the Korean Collection
at the US eighth Army Library on the base at Youngsan,
however access to the US Army base is difficult and the
collection does not circulate. You can also contact other
universities' libraries through the internet to see if
they have the books you are looking for. |
