When countries around the world came together to discuss how to give visually impaired people easier access to books, libraries were at the heart of the drive for an ambitious, legally binding solution. These efforts paid off, with the Treaty of Marrakesh signed in 2013. Now it is time for implementation - a recent meeting in Panama offered a chance to advance down this path, with libraries having a strategic role.
Attendees & Speakers, August 11th is approaching quickly and we’re very excited to share program we have put together for “UnConference, Women in Open Technology & Culture.”
Canadian access to the Marrakesh Treaty starts the clock ticking towards its entry into force, opening up access to works of science and creativity for some of the most vulnerable people in the world. This is a major success, following years of effort by IFLA at WIPO and around the world.
Four libraries from Australia, the US, and Denmark, respectively, have been nominated for the Systematic Public Library of the Year which is awarded to the world’s best new public library.
