Abstract

Global access to knowledge is one of the most interesting challenges for librarians at the moment. Network cooperation at the local, regional, national and international level is essential to achieve this goal. The Ministry of Culture´s library policy in recent years has allowed for the creation of the needed cooperation structures so that all administrations and all types of libraries can collaborate together in projects and initiatives targeted at the joint development of their networks and systems, which provides for the acknowledgement of libraries as key democratic institutions in education, cultural, social and research and development policies.
