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. |
Former IAML President Massimo Gentili Tedeschi has been elected member of the Standing committee of the IFLA Cataloguing section - 2013-2017. We are very lucky to have such an experienced and engaged music cataloguer looking after our interests. Congratulations to Massimo and to IAML!
Dear friends,
Here goes some info on the first Spanish conference devoted to the history and development of jazz music in our country, organized in November 2013 in Valencia. I wish it may be interesting for some of you. Thank you in advance for your attention!

Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the IAML Board, I am delighted to inform you that the Report of the Ad Hoc Committee on the Restructuring of IAML is now available on the IAML website in English, French and German.
Please do take time to read it carefully. It is an excellent document that analyzes how IAML currently works, and offers a suggested path toward a more effective and efficient organization.
The IAML web site (iaml.info) is to be redesigned to become the central point for storing and making accessible all virtual, public IAML documents. It will be the primary source for providing current information about the organisation for all of its members.
