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.

Congratulations to our Latvian colleagues! "The Castle of Light" inaugurated tonight

On behalf of IAML I would like to congratulate our colleagues from Latvia on the official inauguration of the fantastic new building "Castle of Light", which now hosts the National Library of Latvia in Riga! I have understood that the festivities have been going on all week and will culminate in a spectacular public event tonight - Salasīšanās" (a word with two meanings: gathering and reading). Enjoy your evening! I hope you will be very happy in your new home!
