Regional Activities:
Latin America and the Caribbean Section
Scope
The general objective of the Section is to encourage activities
related to access to information and knowledge. The Section gives
priority to promotion of literacy, promotion of reading, and
application of new technologies, as well as to the services of
libraries and information centres in the region. The Section maintains
close relationships of mutual support and exchange with all the
professional groups of IFLA, acting as intermediaries for those groups
when they develop activities and projects for the region, and
especially with the ALP Core Programme.
