EIFL has been working in Laos since 2003. We supported the creation of the Laos Library and Information Consortium (LALIC), and through this partnership, libraries in Laos are providing access to a wide range of scholarly e-resources.
In Laos, EIFL has supported national and institutional open access awareness raising workshops which resulted in the launch of an open access repository at the National University of Laos. EIFL also provided training and a support service to raise awareness of library copyright issues, and to assist with copyright questions.
