ICOLC Statement on the Global COVID-19 Pandemic and Its Impact on Library Services and Resources

MALMAD has endorsed ICOLC (International Coalition of Library Consortia) Statement on the Global COVID-19 Pandemic and its Impact on Library Services and Resources written on behalf of the many library consortia across the world. The statement has two purposes. It is intended to help publishers and other content providers from whom we license electronic information resources and purchase printed content understand better how the current global COVID-19 pandemic affects the worldwide information community. Its second purpose is to suggest a range of approaches that we believe are in the mutual best interest of libraries and the providers of information services.
