This can have significant consequences for libraries in developing and transition countries which have limited funds to purchase copyright-protected materials.
Through the programme “Advocacy for Access to Knowledge: copyright and libraries”, known as EIFL-IP, we advocate for fair and balanced copyright laws that support libraries in their mission to provide access to knowledge.tag:www.eifl.net,2010-03-23:/cps/sections/news/spotlight/2010_03_23_power-experienceThe power of experience: stakeholders emerge as a force for change in Albania2010-03-23T19:09:34Z2010-07-07T20:28:42ZandriusAndrius Krisciunas, Teresa HackettThe Republic of Albania lies in South Eastern Europe in a region known as the Western Balkans. Independent since 1912, Albania was occupied during the Second World War, followed by more than forty years of communist rule. The transition from a closed, centrally-planned state to an open market economy since the establishment of a multiparty democracy in the 1990s has proved to be challenging. In 1997, the collapse of the so-called “pyramid schemes” in which many Albanians lost their life savings, threw the country into crisis.tag:www.eifl.net,2010-07-05:/cps/sections/services/eifl-oa/oa-news/2010_07_05_report-on-implementationReport on the implementation of open content licenses in developing and transition countries is released2010-07-05T11:58:57Z2010-07-07T12:00:57Ziryna-kIryna Kuchmatag:www.eifl.net,2010-07-05:/cps/sections/services/eifl-oa/oa-news/2010_07_05_report-on-openReport on Open Repository Development in Developing and Transition countries is released2010-07-05T11:53:36Z2010-07-06T17:42:25Ziryna-kIryna Kuchmatag:www.eifl.net,2010-07-05:/cps/sections/services/eifl-oa/oa-news/2010_07_05_eifl-oa-program-networkUpdate: EIFL-OA program and network workshops and presentations in May-June2010-07-05T11:46:31Z2010-07-06T08:39:34Ziryna-kIryna Kuchmatag:www.eifl.net,2010-07-06:/cps/sections/services/plip/background/news/2010_07_06_access-to-learning-awardAccess to Learning Award (ATLA) 20112010-07-06T08:40:03Z2010-07-06T08:38:47Zbreda-kBreda Karuntag:www.eifl.net,2010-07-05:/cps/sections/services/eifl-foss/foss-news/2010_07_05_sustainable-centres"Sustainable Centres, Visible Greenstone Collections" - SAGSN National Centres Training and Planning Meeting2010-07-05T21:30:45Z2010-07-05T21:30:19ZrepkeRepke de Vriestag:www.eifl.net,2010-07-05:/cps/sections/services/eifl-foss/foss-news/2010_07_05_first-southern-africanFirst Southern African Greenstone Support Network workshop in Nigeria2010-07-05T20:31:38Z2010-07-05T19:43:19ZrepkeRepke de Vries
