Annual Conference 2014 - Call for Papers

The BAAC annual conference will be held from September 17 to 19 this year in Riga, Latvia, in the National Library of Latvia, also called „The Castle of Light” - an impressive sight and one of the largest new cultural buildings in the Northern Hemisphere in the 21st century. The conference will be hosted by the National Library of Latvia, in cooperation with the Institute of Literature, Folklore and Art (University of Latvia), the National Archives of Latvia and Museum of the Occupation of Latvia.

A new project launched this week, Europeana Sounds, will bring together online, for public access, over a million sound and associated digitised items from leading audio archives and libraries across Europe.

Europeana Sounds is funded by the European Union under its ICT Policy Support Programme as part of the Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programm.

The project will last for three years. IASA will help to ensure the sustainability of the network that will be created during the project by creating a European section. More details on the project:
