The International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) and the International Council on Archives (ICA) note with grave concern reports from Dr Saad Eskander, the Director of the Iraq National Library and Archive (INLA) in Baghdad, that on 8 August 2007 members of the Iraqi National Guard forced entry and occupied the premises of the Iraq National Library and Archive in Baghdad. This follows an earlier incident in which a US military patrol entered INLA's main building without the Director's permission.
