Book Repository
This Repository is a searchable database of all books produced by alumni in their personal capacity, after they retired from the World Bank Group. The Repository is designed to enhance our members’ awareness of books published by fellow retirees and provide easy access to them. It includes live links and information on books by retirees on any topic, in any genre, and any language. The Repository is limited to books that (1) are published after retirement from the WBG; (2) are not part of a consultancy or work assignment at another MDB or IFI; and (3) are publicly available as a free download, or at cost.
To add books to the Repository send an email to 1818Society@wbgalumni.org with information about the book and the web link where it can be found.
