This bibliography is organised in alphabetical order under author and title main entry. It's divided into twelve main categories as described above.

I have been compiling East Timor bibliography since I was studying Library and Information Services at university in Melbourne. When I was there, I compiled a special East Timor bibliiography in four languages for the Department of History - University of Melbourne. For some reason, I lost all the files on my computer so this bibliography is far from complete.

Most of these materials are held in the National Library of Australia, National Library of Portugal, public and school libraries, academic libraries, bookshops around Australia and online bookshops such as Amazon etc. If you have a dissertation, thesis or a book about East Timor that is not listed in our bibliography, and would like to include it in our bibliography database, please email us here.
