The Museums, Libraries and Archives Council

The Museums, Libraries and Archives Council (MLA) is the lead strategic agency for museums, libraries and archives.

The MLA aims to help to improve people’s lives by building knowledge, supporting learning, inspiring creativity and celebrating identity. Itwas launched in April 2000 as the strategic body working with and for museums, archives and libraries, tapping into the potential for collaboration between them.

Membership of the group will allow museums, libraries and archives to have an active role in the debate about opening up access to the moving image materials which they have in their collections.
