Abstract

The UAP Newsletter, published by the IFLA International Office for the Universal Availability of Publications (UAP), reports on global efforts to improve access to publications. It covers the development of the UAP programme through conferences, advisory committee activities, research projects, and regional seminars. Key topics include national acquisition policies, interlibrary lending, preservation, and the impact of new technologies. The newsletter highlights collaboration with UNESCO and other partners, and features case studies from countries like the UK, Nigeria, and members of a Southeast Asian consortium. It promotes planning, research, and policy-making to overcome barriers to access, particularly in developing countries. Through publications, guidelines, and training initiatives, the UAP Newsletter serves as a tool for advocacy, coordination, and dissemination of best practices to achieve universal access to published information.
