ECMI Library
The ECMI Library is an independent collection of books, journals, and grey literature of more than 3,000 items covering many aspects of minority issues. The highly specialized collection offers public access to a variety of materials in more than twenty languages on interethnic relations, language and cultural diversity issues and ethnic conflict in Europe.
The Library includes a useful reference section and a considerable number of published and unpublished reports, and is especially strong in the area of minority protection with regards to international law. The ECMI Library is also unique in that it includes an ever-growing number of annual reports of Ombudsman offices around the world, which provide insight into the human rights situation in many countries. Current periodical and newspaper subscriptions reflect the multidisciplinary nature of ECMI research, and reference services are provided both in-house and for the general public.

| Description | In the decade since Ukraine attained independence from the Soviet Union, questions of national identity have dominated the study of Ukrainian politics and society. This focus has been justified for several different reasons. First, it seemed clear to observers of Ukraine that ethnic, linguistic, and regional divisons in the country called into question its ability to persist as a unified indepdendent state. Second, the relationship between regional, linguistic, and ethnic identities in Ukraine was unclear and needed to be better understood. Third, for the Ukrainian government and for those who would influence it, there were serious policy questions and poitical disputes over what sort of policies concerning language and national identity the new state should adopt. |
