There is a desperate need for e-lending in European libraries.

Sign the Declaration of Democracy!
In many countries – also in Europe- this role of libraries is threatened or even under attack.

EBLIDA has therefore worked with the Council of Europe on Recommendations on Library Legislation and Policy in Europe to protect the independence of library professionals and the role of the library as democratic institution.

In the USA the Urban Libraries Council has launched a Declaration of Democracy --> http://www.eblida.org/news/eclaration-of-democracy.html

It can be difficult for both groups of people to come to the premises of a library, but these are the people who are probably most dependent on libraries as a source of information...
