Building capacity through the IFLA Building Strong Library Associations programme

An introduction to the Building Strong Library Associations programme of the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions. The programme is rolled out through country projects which include workshops, specialist mentoring, online blended activities and specially developed cross-programme activities. Three country projects per year will be implemented from 2010 until 2012, one each in Africa, Asia and Oceania, and Latin America and the Caribbean. The programme will be evaluated on three levels with a view towards ensuring sustainability of the programme and each country project.
