The Naturist Education Foundation established the NEF Research Library to build and maintain the world's largest and most complete collection of naturist-themed magazines, books, and other items of historical or cultural importance. By making the resource available to serious researchers, NEF improves academic and public understanding of what naturism has been and is today, benefiting both the naturist community and the general public.

Your contribution helps the NEFRL find and secure naturist materials for research, education and information and make these available to our naturist community.

NEFRL is a member of the Wisconsin Library Association, the American Library Association and the Nudist Library Consortium. NEF and it's programs - like NEFRL - is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
