LISNews: Librarian News

The IFLA Annual Conference in Boston saw the launch of the first IFLA/FAIFE World Report on libraries and intellectual freedom:
\"a major project, a first attempt to provide a picture on the status of libraries and intellectual freedom throughout the world. More than 140 countries have been contacted and 46 have submitted their report.\"
As expected, the reports already collected confirm that \"all is not well\" with freedom of expression and freedom of access to information.
This sounds like such an important project and I don\'t think anyone has posted it already: here is the official press release from IFEX, the International Freedom of Expression Exchange.
