5. 与渥太华大学的合作仍在继续，已完成了若干研究。预期不久将恢复与哥伦比亚大学之间的良好合作。秘书处也得益于实习生的工作。秘书处重申其此前在第六委员会发出的呼吁，也即，如果有学术机构对在《汇编》方面开展合作表示兴趣，请各代表团转告秘书处。迄今为止，这一呼吁已促成与亚太区域两个学术机构建立联系。
5. Cooperation with the University of Ottawa had continued, resulting in the completion of several studies. It was anticipated that the well-established cooperation with Columbia University would resume in the near future. The Secretariat was also assisted by the work of interns. The Secretariat reiterated its appeal, previously made in the Sixth Committee, that delegations convey expressions of interest by academic institutions for possible cooperation on the Repertory. To date, the appeal had resulted in contact with two academic institutions in the Asia-Pacific region.
