Information i s both a social good\, that should benefit the largest number of people in the most significant way possible\, and a resource\, that can be disseminat ed and withheld as a means of exerting power. The global access to informat ion crisis accentuates the need for sustainable\, coordinated efforts by in stitutions around the world to collect and preserve information and make it accessible. It is imperative that librarians\, information professionals\, information users\, and other stakeholders develop resilient\, sustainable collections that counter current disruptions and withstand future attacks. This talk proposes the development of Sustainable Information Access Goals (SIAGs) to serve as a framework for fostering resilient collections and pr otecting access to information globally.
