International Research Abstracts: Youth Library Services 1996-97 (IRAYLS)
To help librarians share resources and skills, the Children's Section of IFLA sponsors a database containing abstracts of research being conducted on library services for young people. Coverage is international, although most of the studies come from North America. Abstracts are arranged in twelve categories and are alphabetical within each category by author's name.
Contents: Administration | Classification | Censorship | Collections Education and Research | History of Children's Libraries Information Seeking | Programs and Activities Reading and Reading Interests | School Librarianship Technology Use | Use and Users

Books for All
Foreign Aid for Children's Libraries - 25 Years Joint project of IFLA, Section of Children's Libraries and UNESCO. Since 1973 this project has provided children and young adults in developing countries with reading material through contributions in the international monetary unit of UNESCO-UNUMs. The Project has finished on 2002 and has been successfully completed on the Glasgow Conference, 2002 Books for All: An international project for children's libraries in developing countries
The World through Picture Books Project (Click for more info)
The aim is to create a list of picture books from around the world that have been recommended by librarians. This can then be used :
• As a way of celebrating and promoting the language, cultures and quality of children’s book publishing from each country
• By countries wishing to purchase books from other countries and looking for popular and “multi-cultural” titles
• By Sister Libraries as a way of exploring the children’s literature of their ‘Sister Library’country
