COUNCIL OF EUROPE FCNM SECRETARIAT LAUNCHES A NEW ONLINE BIBLIOGRAPHY ON NATIONAL MINORITIES

April 2006 - The Secretariat of the Council of Europe's Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities has just made available an online bibliography on national minorities on their minorities website www.coe.int/minorities.

In accordance with the information published in Eurolang, a spokesperson for the FCNM Secretariat said that "it started off as a working document which was occasionally shared with researchers or other persons seeking information on national minorities in Europe. Rather than keep it to ourselves, we have decided to share it with the wider public and will endeavour to keep it updated on a regular basis. We hope you will find it useful."

The new bibliography on national minorities has been prepared as a working document by the Secretariat of the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities and, in spite of not being exhaustive, it covers the member states of the Council of Europe. It also includes opinions, comments, state reports and country-specific resolutions of the Committee of Ministers.
