Dear Christina,
Hi, sorry for the delay, I would like to make a contribution for the
question:
3.What actions would make things better for users accessing the internet
through libraries?
It´s indeed a great opportunity for IFLA to participate at the next internet
governance forum (IGF2015) and try to bring more the attention of the
importance of widening Access to Information conversations, considering that
the Internet is a major player for it.
Bring people to know that Access to Information is more than an
infrastructure problem. There´s much more to work, agree, recommend to
national policy makers about getting advantage of the infrastructure, which
means, making available pertinent information, contents, information
services that may help communities to drive their own development.
We need more countries aware of the importance of the information their
institutions produce and more articulating actions that make it easy for
people to access it without -not finding it by google- or trying to see in
which web page the information might be found.
What IFLA and Beyond Access have already achieved in terms of Access to
Information with the Lyon Declaration and the participation at the SDG´s
process is a major success!. The information laws that are being issued in
many countries are also remarkable issues.
I would say we need to go deeper in terms of:
• Promoting the establishment of national policies/strategies to make
available and easier for people to have real access to the information they
need.
• Promoting local content development.
• Promoting libraries as ideal places for enabling the communities to
facilitate information access and local content development.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,

Hello everyone,
As Stuart Hamilton mentioned in his message below of July 1, I?ve joined
IFLA as the manager of policy and advocacy and will be the main point of
contact for producing a document to discuss at IGF in Brazil. We have a
place on the agenda for the main session, and we need to post a document for
discussion to the IGF website by August 1 to maintain our agenda slot. This
gives us just over two weeks to gather ideas.
Stuart proposed that we produce a set of guidelines or principles to
communicate the continuing value of public access to ICT via libraries and
asked three questions:
1. What format should this take?
2. Do you know of existing materials that contain valuable content we
can draw from?
3. What actions would make things better for users accessing the
internet through libraries?
I welcome your ideas, input and questions ? this can be as brief as
directing me to a link for a good document that contains principles, or as
much as you would like to contribute to outline your ideas. You?re welcome
to post to the list or to contact me directly off-list.
I?ll post a draft to the list by July 28 (2 weeks from today) to seek your
additional feedback.
I look forward to hearing from all of you.
Best regards,
Christina

Dear members of the PAL-DC mailing list
At this year?s main IGF in Brazil there will be an opportunity for the
Dynamic Coalitions to showcase their work in the form of a main session.
Priority will be given to Dynamic Coalitions who have inter-sessional work
to present for feedback. IFLA and EIFL are of the opinion that this is a
good time for us to work together as a community on something concrete
around public access, perhaps a set of guidelines or principles that can be
shared with the rest of the IGF community to make them more aware of the
continuing value of public access to ICTs.
We all know that we have a lot of material around public access already. So
perhaps this exercise is more about identifying an appropriate format for
our product (other coalitions have done guidelines, or principles), pulling
together existing materials, and then drafting something off the back of
this exercise. IFLA and EIFL are willing to get this exercise underway, and
then to share out with the whole PAL-DC community for input.
As a parallel track, but also a contribution exercise, we would be
interesting to know what you think are the unresolved issues in public
access i.e. what concrete actions would you like to see taken by actors in
the public access space to make things better for users accessing the
internet through libraries? We can build your responses into the draft of
the product, and then share back with the mailing list for further input.
The document could then be taken in a more advanced draft for to the IGF in
Brazil for discussion in the Pal-DC session, and showcased in the main
session for all DCs.
What do you think? Could you find some time by the end of July to share your
thoughts with the list? My colleague, Christina de Castell, who is the new
Manager of Policy and Advocacy at IFLA, will be the main point of contact
for this exercise, and will be responding to questions and keeping things
moving.
Looking forward to hearing from you all. As a separate question, please
could you also indicate in your responses if you are planning to attend the
IGF in Brazil in November?
Kind regards,
Stuart
