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. |
Dear colleagues,
I am pleased to announce that a new platform "Job Swapping" was created on the AIBM website featuring information about the professional exchange of music librarians: www.aibm.info/ausbildung/jobswapping/
Dear Colleagues,
The IAML mid-year Board meeting will take place in Gothenburg 1-2 March. As a IAML member you are cordially invited to contact me regarding any issues you feel should be on the Board's agenda. Input from the membership is always welcome!
We eagerly anticipate this year's annual conference in Vienna, Austria with an opening ceremony at City Hall, sessions on the campus of Vienna University, and a farewell dinner at Palais Ferstel.
Interessenten für einen beruflichen Aufenthalt in Musikbibliotheken und -sammlungen des In- und Auslandes erhalten auf der neu eingerichteten Webseite “Job Swapping” im Bereich “Ausbildung” nützliche Informationen zur Vorbereitung eines solchen Vorhabens und das Angebot einer “Tauschbörse” in Form von Inseraten “Biete/Suche”.
Die AIBM-Fortbildungskommission möchte damit – die Möglichkeiten der zunehmenden Internationalisierung nutzend – das Lifelong Learning International für Musikbibliothekare fördern.
Michael Fingerhut informed us:
According to Norman Lebrecht, the country house of George Enescu and his documents in the Enescu Museum in Bucharest are falling into dereliction (the house is even scheduled for demolition).
It is quite curious, since the museum appears to be included in the European Heritage List.
Quite sad indeed.
