Academic and professional literature publisher Emerald Group Publishing Limited, UK, and the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) have signed a partnership agreement to formalise their relationship.
The ‘special partnership’ was first announced at the IFLA World Library and Information Congress in Milan, August 2009. This was cemented with the signing of a formal agreement between the two organisations. The agreement will provide the IFLA community with substantially more publishing opportunities. The opportunity to be published by Emerald will be available, not only for research produced by the various IFLA Sections, but also for papers presented at the general IFLA Congress and satellite events. Emerald articles arising as a result of IFLA activities will be made available in open access, nine months after publication with Emerald.
Emerald has been an IFLA Gold Corporate Partner since 1998. During this period of more than a decade, Emerald has strengthened its involvement in IFLA’s activities, which culminated in the continuing sponsorship of the IFLA International Marketing Award run by IFLA’s Management and Marketing Section, as well as Emerald’s continuing support of IFLA library initiatives and activities in Africa.
