Abstract
During times of global instability and recession, as well as shifting populations around the world, it becomes necessary for libraries that serve blind and print-impaired persons to expand their collections without incurring extra costs. Interlending of materials in alternate formats (braille, audio, and large print) in other languages than that of a country's native speakers becomes increasingly important. The IFLA Section of Libraries for the Blind has started a worldwide project that will make these materials more accessible. This paper examines the goals, objectives, and initial groundwork in originating such a project.
