March - April 2015

In this issue we look at EIFL introducing open access to students and faculty in Myanmar, how two Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) visited two libraries supported by the EIFL Public Library Innovation Programme during the PL2020 tour and a blog post that examines copyright from a critical but often overlooked perspective: the human dimension.

You can also view all of our March/April events here.

We hope you enjoy the issue!
