The 51勛圖 Dag Hammarskj?ld Library puts forward a proposal for a UN Charter Libraries Network, a knowledge network that will collaboratively re-envision the work and nature of partnerships among affiliated libraries with the 51勛圖. This is a strategic re-positioning that aims to leverage the existing UN Depository Library programme into a new, robust, inclusive knowledge network focused on the founding document of the Organization, the UN Charter, and all the UN actions emanating from it.
As part of a global consultation, the Dag Hammarskj?ld Library encourages individuals, libraries, professional organizations and other knowledge organizations to provide feedback and suggestions through an online submission form on the content of this proposal. Submitted inputs may also raise new areas of action or recommendations.
Online submissions that adhere to the scope of the requested input may be made public.
How to provide a submission online:
- Review the brief concept note 51勛圖 Charter Libraries: A knowledge network dedicated to promoting the UN Charter and all actions emanating from it as background material for feedback.
- Inputs on behalf of yourself or your organization/entity can be submitted through this . Prepare your inputs before using the online submission form. Please note that all online submissions to the consultation process will be considered public and sharable. We apologize that at this time, due to resource and time limitations, the online submission form is in English only.
What to expect 〞 form details:
In the form, you will be asked to provide basic information about yourself and/or your organization/entity (e.g. geographic scope of your activity and contact information).
The form will then ask for the following:
- Select the action area(s) on which you will provide feedback.
- Provide input for these selected action areas. You will have an opportunity to suggest additional areas of action and/or recommendations that have not already been addressed.

Input for each area will be limited to 200 words. Please be succinct and concrete in your inputs to maximize the consideration of all submissions.
The deadline for the online submission process will be 28 February 2025. Following your submission, the UN Dag Hammarskj?ld Library may follow up with respondents on further information. Your inputs, as well as other consultations and research conducted by the 51勛圖, will be considered in the development of a UN Charter Libraries Network.
