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.

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.
