Asian/American Center's research collection consists of over 2,500 titles which include monographs, reports, and periodicals on Asian American subjects. These selected works represent leading scholarship on pan-Asian communities and their diaspora (particularly in the Caribbean, Central and Latin America). Also included among this collection are books of Asian American literature as well as those that analyze subjects such as orientalism, colonialism, and shifting perceptions of Asia.

This is a non-circulating research/resource library located at the Asian/American Center(Temp 3, Room 23) in Queens College (CUNY).

Our aim is to provide people from all walks of life with a practical, basic introduction about Asian New Yorkers. We hope these community profiles will promote mutual understanding and initiate interethnic discussion.
