EAST is a consortia of more than 175 academic and research libraries (plus one State Library) that collaborate to protect and preserve print scholarly content, ensuring it can be accessed by future generations of learners, teachers, and scholars.
As of 2024, EAST has retained more than 11 million monographs and 37,000 journal holdings across its membership. Access is provided through standard interlibrary loan as well as (in some cases) digitization of the content.
