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. |

The IAML Outreach Committee has funds available for congress travel. Applications to the fund may be made by music librarians, archivists and individuals working with music collections whose papers/posters have been accepted for the congress, but whose institutions cannot fund them or who have sought funding elsewhere without success. Priority is normally given to applicants from economically disadvantaged countries. The deadline for applications is 1 April 2023.
The IAML Board had its annual midterm meeting in Munich on 9-10 February. The meeting took place in the Bavarian State Library (Bayerische Staatsbibliothek), the workplace of Vice President Jürgen Diet, who prepared two very nice days for us.
It is with sadness that we share news of the recent death of Prue Neidorf, long-time IAML member and founding Music Librarian at the National Library of Australia (NLA). Prue died surrounded by her family in Canberra on 18 January 2023.
On 2 December 2002, the Austrian national branch of IAML was founded at the Music Collection of the Austrian National Library. The initiator was the then newly appointed director of the Music Collection, Dr. Thomas Leibnitz. The members of IAML Austria met on 14 December 2022 again in the venue of the Music Collection of the National Library to celebrate its 20th anniversary. It was a small, very intimate celebration, during which Thomas Leibnitz gave a review of the history and activities of IAML Austria.
