This week, National Pro-Bono week, we have been thinking about the importance of pro-bono work. The ILBF is run by volunteers who give their time on a pro-bono basis and the importance of this work to the various committee members and trustees has been reiterated in the series of interviews that we have carried out recently. 
“ … thank you very much for this great gift as the books that ILBF has sent to us will go a long way into taking us forward as an institution for the betterment of the Rule of Law here in Bhutan …”: we look at the countries the ILBF has sent books to over the past decade. 
"Access to Justice is a fundamental right". ILBF trustee Jane Colston tells us of the importance of the ILBF objectives to her and the rest of the team. 
"It is hard to imagine what it's like to be a student without access to the right materials, even harder to imagine practitioners and judges without the tools of the trade." We speak to the second of our trustees, Katrina Crossley, about the work of the ILBF and what it means to her. 
At the ILBF, we have been reflecting on the first 10 years and considering what the next 10 years might hold. Our trustees are crucial to the work of the ILBF, so we've asked them about their role and thoughts. 
The Supreme Court Library of the Federated States of Micronesia was delighted to receive a shipment of books from the ILBF – we’ve now received some wonderful photos. It is feedback like this that really brings home the value of the books we send and the impact of the ILBF.
