There are some values on-line, but you will encounter three problems:
Problem 1 (the biggest one): Different sites list different values.
Problem 2: In most cases, the values are for two temperatures only.
Problem 3: If there is a mixture, the heat of vaporization _might_
vary from the values for ethylene glycol alone. (This won?t matter if
you aren?t interested in mixtures such as water/antifreeze.) One site
gives heats of vaporization for a series of temperatures, but if you
look at the title of the article cited, it appears that these are for
ethylene glycol dissolved in an imide.
The values from various sites are given below:
1) The NIST values are:
273 K 61.9 +- 6.3 kJ/mol (Original 1937 (?) value had been 57.07 kJ/mol)
409 K 68. +- 2.

2) Another site uses the same data sources and gives the values as:
273 K 61.92 +- 6.28
409 - 469 K 67.8 +- 1.7

3) At the National Toxicology Program site, the value is given as:
50.5 kJ/mol (no temperature given)
http://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/index.cfm?objectid=E87BF66D-BDB5-82F8-FD28184E0A518718
They list the data source as
?Source: the National Library of Medicine's Hazardous Substance
Database, 03/28/2005.?
http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/search/f?./temp/~jJkSfe:1
which, in turn, gives their data source as
?Lide, DR (ed.). CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics. 81st Edition.
CRC Press LLC, Boca Raton: FL 2000, p. 6-110?
4) In a 1990 IUPAC article, "RECOMMENDED METHODS FOR THE PURIFICATION
OF SOLVENTS AND TESTS FOR IMPURITIES 1,2=ETHANEDIOL AND
2,2,2-TRIFLUOROETHANOL"
the enthalpy of vaporization is listed as
52.69 kJ/mol 298 K
50.46 kJ/mol at normal boiling temperature
http://www.iupac.org/publications/pac/1990/pdf/6201x0139.pdf
The article cites a reference for each of these values.
5) Another site is a "thermochemical properties database."
http://www.fiz-chemie.de/infotherm/html/mol_pages/1/1/mol5543.html
It gives values for enthalpy of vaporization of ethylene glycol, but
the values may be for ethylene glycol dissolved in an imide. The
enthalpy of vaporization was determined for a range of temperatures
from 303 K to 336 K and at 298.15 K
298.15 K 65.40 kJ/mol
303.2 K 65.16 kJ/mol
336.2 K 63.52 kJ/mol

Have fun comparing the above to what you get from the pirika site.
