The Program seeks to improve governance and capacity in the law and justice sector in the Pacific by strengthening access to legal information. The Program has been in existence for over 20 years and twins like libraries in Australia and New Zealand with like libraries in the law and justice sector of the Pacific Region. There are currently 16 twinning arrangements in place but many more Pacific agencies are calling for assistance. If any Australian or New Zealand law and justice sector agency would like to be involved in the program please contact

We ask a twinned library to do 4 main things
1. Provide assistance with legal research or library management when requested by their Pacific twin
2. Keep an electronic copy of the pacific twins titles list in case of disaster
3. Provide ongoing parts to at least one set of law reports (preferably bound copy)
4. Contact your twin regularly to see if additional help is required.
Many thanks
