And, on the 4th of February, Katia and Ibrahim hosted a RSCVD session for the MENA region in Arabic and organized by the IFLA MENA RO at Qatar National Library. The webinar was successful with 74 participants . The feedback showed that participants learned about RSCVD and are willing to use it in the future. The coming webinars will be in Lisbon in May, in Genova in October, in Marsh for the Bodleian Library, and planning another one for the SiriLanka Library Association and Bangladeshi Librarians. The committee members agreed for the need to write a policy and tips on what can or cannot be requested through RSCVD to minimize confusion as same requests are going to RSCVD and NILDE. The last item was discussing the ILDS2024 papers to be published along to the 4 case studies done from Lebanon, Qatar, India and Turkey.
