Synopsis
A primary source from a U.S. Senate investigation into the State Department’s worldwide information centers and their purpose in the Cold War.
This volume collects testimony from a 1950s hearing that examines the overseas library program, its stated goals, and how books are selected and distributed across roughly 150 information centers worldwide. The material covers how a Library of Congress master file helps locate titles and authors, and what the government says about using or avoiding works by Communist authors.
Readers gain a glimpse of the tense atmosphere surrounding information policy, accountability, and the role of libraries in public diplomacy during a period of high political pressure.
- Context for the overseas information centers and their stated mission to reflect American values and fight communism
- Discussion of how titles and authors are tracked across locations
- Examples of questions and testimony about authors and publishers involved in the program
- Notes on legal privilege and the use of the Fifth Amendment in testimony
Ideal for readers of government proceedings, Cold War history, and primary-source document collections seeking insight into information policy in the United States.
