Funding and governance of library and information services for visually impaired people: international case studies

Part2:Country studies

Croatia

What is driving change?

The emphasis has been placed on a major digitisation scheme, the Digital collection for blind and visually impaired people [http://www.ffzg.hr/infoz/lida/lida2001/present/golub.ppt], a project backed by The Croatian Library for the Blind and the Croatian Association of the Blind.

Policy and practice generally are slowly changing following Croatia’s membership of the EU.
