The American International Consortium of Academic Libraries (AMICAL) brings together 29 American‐modeled institutions in 22 different countries across Eastern, Central and Western Europe, West and North Africa, the Middle East, Central and Southern Asia, and Russia. Operating in diverse cultural contexts but committed to the American model of liberal education, our mission is to advance learning, teaching and research through the collaborative development of library and information services and curricular resources at member institutions.
