Discover the European Documentation Centre at the University of Murcia: a bridge between the Region and the European Union
In the academic heart of the Region of Murcia, within the Nebrija Library on the La Merced campus, lies the European Documentation Centre (EDC) of the University of Murcia, an essential resource for researchers, students, and citizens interested in learning more about the European Union.
What is the European Documentation Centre?
The EDC is a specialized information and documentation center on the European Union, part of a network of centers designated by the European Commission. Its main mission is to facilitate access to official information and publications from EU institutions, thereby promoting knowledge, teaching, and research on the European integration process.
Although integrated into the University of Murcia as a library service, its reach extends beyond the university sphere: it offers resources and support to anyone interested in European issues.
Services and resources available
The EDC provides its users with a comprehensive collection of documents on the EU, including:
Official publications and materials from all European institutions.
Specialized documentation on EU policies, European law, social studies, and statistics.
Access to digital resources, databases, and official EU portals.
Advice and support for document searches and specialized consultations.
In addition, the center regularly disseminates free and up-to-date information on European programs, funding opportunities, employment, and mobility, making it a key resource for those who wish to actively participate in EU initiatives or develop projects with a European component.
An open resource for everyone
Although the European Centre for Documentation (ECD) is located within the university, access is not limited to students and faculty. The general public can visit its facilities, make inquiries, and benefit from both the available materials and professional support to explore issues related to the European Union.
