Libraries serving persons with Print Disabilities

This is the website for a previous WLIC. It is archived and will not be updated anymore.

Any additional Congress Session papers that we receive after the Congress will only be added to and stored in the Congress section of the IFLA Library, a separate website built on dedicated document management software.
