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. |
This year’s host city is Osaka, Japan. Concerts will be streamed live on JazzDay.com and feature an impressive lineup of world-famous artists.
IAML has established a new Advocacy Committee which Pam Thompson has agreed to chair. Please read on for information on how to apply.

I had the great privilege to take part in this year’s Annual Study Weekend (ASW) with the IAML UK & Ireland Branch in Cambridge, Friday 11th - Sunday 13th April. I had been told that this would be a perfect time to visit the city and I can testify that this is certainly true. Everything was blossoming and the birds were just as enthusiastic as I was! The meeting took place in Fitzwilliam College – a modern college, ten minutes’ walk from the city center. The college gardens were very beautiful and there was a serene atmosphere (the students had left for Easter holidays!)
