To promote the concept of a global community of libraries, the American Library Association (ALA) is encouraging U.S. libraries to form partnerships with libraries in other countries. Participants in the ALA Sister Library Initiative should choose the level of involvement with their Sister Library based upon the mutual needs of the libraries. Sister Libraries should make commitments at levels that are comfortable for both participants. Some partnerships will be informal, while others may involve formal contracts and ceremonies. The links below will provide ideas and resources to help you arrange this type of partnership.
