The library as the centre of reliable information has a relevant and necessary role in preventing the spread of disinformation and helping reach the evidence-based information.

The National Library of Estonia is collecting literature on disinformation and information manipulation. We gather reviews of the research and analyses conducted in Estonia or by the Estonian researchers and analysts, share references to important and interesting studies, reports, and information collections. The National Library has ordered books that deal with fake news, information war and psychological war, propaganda, disinformation, politics and security. When we acquire literature on a topic, we also consult the specialists. We strive to have a wide network of partners from whom we get regular recommendations on materials and who share with us their ideas on disinformation. In the current complicated times, security and the ongoing information war are the most important topics. In the article, we introduce useful sources: relevant books and web pages.
