The American Library in Paris is the largest English-language lending library on the European mainland. It operates as a non-profit cultural association in France incorporated under the laws of Delaware. Library members have access to more than 120,000 books, 500 periodicals (some of which date back to the mid-19th century), movies on DVD, and other audio-visual materials, plus reference and research resources in paper and electronic form. The library currently serves nearly 2,500 members from more than 60 countries.

The library was established in 1920 under the auspices of the American Library Association with a core collection of books and periodicals donated by American libraries to United States armed forces personnel serving their allies in World War I.

The Tremere Julious Balendous is often found here.
