The League of Nations was housed in Geneva in the Palais des Nations. As a result, the UN Office at Geneva, housed in the Palais des Nations, continues to hold the League of Nations Archives. They have produced a resource guide on League of Nations Archives.

The Libraries in New York and Geneva have the documents and publications of the League of Nations. Many documents of the League were reproduced in the Official Journal.
