European Information Hub Canolfan Wybodaeth Ewropeaidd - European Information Hub The European Information Hub is part of the Library Service at Cardiff University.

It gathers expertise, provides specialist information and facilitates access to content on any dimension relating to Europe – its countries and regions, its complex realities, its national and supranational institutions (including the European Union), its relations with the rest of the world. The Hub serves students, lecturers and researchers in higher education, and also the general public includ

We give stakeholders and citizens opportunities to connect with and find out about the European Union and the European dimension in our daily lives. This Hub is the successor of the European Documentation Centre at Cardiff University (Cardiff EDC), a longstanding information centre focused on the European Union.

Our Story

The European Documentation Centre (EDC), located in the Aberconway Guest Study Centre at Cardiff University, is part of the Europe Direct Information Network set up by the European Commission. The Cardiff EDC is also an active member of the Wales European Information Network. The EDC is a major source of information and expertise about the institutions, activities and policies of the European Union (EU). It is a formal European Union Information Relay, and as such contains the publicly available documentation of the institutions, agencies and departments that together comprise the EU. In addition, the collection at Cardiff includes much material from other sources that describe, analyse, comment upon and relate to developments in the EU, the countries and regions of Europe, and the wider Europe. Today, much information is also available electronically. The Cardiff EDC staff can help you find this information quickly and efficiently. The primary function of the EDC is to aid the academic study of European integration and the growing European dimension in other academic disciplines. Cardiff EDC is open to students and researchers from all institutions in the region. In addition, the wider public in South Wales is welcome to make full use of the Centre. Cardiff EDC aims to: - provide information about all aspects of the European Union and the countries of Europe in a professional and non-partisan way, - encourage debate about the EU and awareness of the European dimension in our lives give the public the opportunity to communicate their views to the EU in the form of questions, suggestions and response to consultations.
