The mission of the International Association of Music Libraries, Archives and Documentation Centres (IAML) is to broaden access to music resources through international collaboration and advocacy, to support research, learning, performance and enjoyment. Our members open up the vast world of information and repertoire in their daily interactions with students, educators, researchers, musicians, and the general public. We work to promote and preserve musical heritage among diverse cultures as we recognise the importance of music in the lives of the world’s people.

"Keeping Music Alive" - IAML goes Far East

A week has passed since the conference ”Keeping Music Alive: Innovative Approaches to Music Documentation and Interpretation” ended. The Conference was arranged by Ewha Womans [sic] University in Seoul and several IAML members participated. I was inivited in my capacity as Secretary General of IAML and made a presentation of our Association. IAML’s President Barbara Mackenzie was also attending, but this time in her role as Chief-Editor of RILM. Jennifer Ward, working at the RISM office in Frankfurt, gave her own paper "RISM for Librarians and Students".
