The Lyon Declaration

The Lyon Declaration on Access to Information and Development was successfully launched at the World Library and Information Congress 2014 in Lyon. Since then, over 280 organisations from across the library and development community have signed the document and called upon United Nations Member States to incorporate access to information in the new post-2015 development framework. 
AISWA Libraries Inc. was created to assist, promote and strengthen the interests of Independent  School Libraries in Western Australia. We aim to:
  • Develop consultation and co-operation among Independent School Libraries
  • Disseminate information relevant to Independent School libraries and their staff
  • Provide opportunities for Professional Learning relevant to staff in school libraries
  • Liaise with AISWA and other professional bodies
