The Association for Information Management
ASLIB is a membership association for people who manage information and knowledge in organizations, who are not necessarily librarians. We provide training, advice and networking for members, with a key focus on data protection, intellectual property and information governance issues.
ASLIB members benefit from access to a range of leading information resources and continuing professional development opportunities.
Today is International Data Protection Day. On 26 April 2006, the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe decided to launch a Data Protection Day, to be celebrated each year on 28 January.

It is a foundation stone of data protection, in Europe.
