Abstract
The IFLA/UNESCO Multicultural Library Manifesto proclaims cultural and linguistic diversity as the fundamental principles of freedom and equity of access to information and knowledge for all that should drive library services. The primary goal of the Manifesto is to assist libraries throughout the world in developing and advocating for multicultural services. The Manifesto sets the stage for libraries to address their community’s unique cultural and linguistic needs through dedicated services and strategies.
