In 1991 the Council of the University of Malta approved the Statute creating the Institute for European Studies, previously known as the European Documentation and Research Centre (EDRC), at the University of Malta, incorporating within it the European Documentation Centre herein after the IES Library (EDC). The Institute of European Studies鈥檚 main objective is to encourage the study of European integration and co-operation and by hosting the Institute Library it ensures that the University Community and the general public have access to the legislation and documentation produced by the European Union. It forms part of Europe Direct, a free information service on the EU. 

The IES Library (EDC) was originally set up at the University of Malta in the early 1970s, soon after Malta had concluded an Association Agreement with the European Economic Community (1970) and it is the only EDC in Malta.

As of 1997 a large amount of information on the activities of the EU is available online. 

The IES Library (EDC) receives all of the main publications of the institutions and agencies of the European Union. However in recent years the distribution of these documents by Brussels has become more selective. In recent years, the library has been investing in books and now boasts of a sizeable collection of monographs on titles related to European politics, economics, law, international relations, climate change and research methods, amongst others.

The library is situated in the Institute for European Studies and is open to all students and the general public. Questions and requests can be submitted by email.

All holdings present in the library are catalogued in the UM's Main Library .
