    The Library has a large collection of fully digitized books on 81 countries throughout the world.  They were published in the 1990s and early 2000s by the Federal Research Division.  From Albania to Yugoslavia with stops in Chile, Somalia, and Vietnam, your students can explore the History, Culture, Religions, Politics, and Environment of nations on every continent. 

    The book on Israel is especially pertinent today because it covers Palestine as well.
