The need for and the status of dosimetry and activation nuclear data libraries will be presented. Each of the major library systems in the world will be covered. Besides the traditional long-lived fission reactor dosimetry sets, new dosimetry sets containing short-lived products needed for fusion applications will be discussed. A major segment of the talk will deal with activation, especially the needs of fusion. The recent Dutch, United Kingdom, and United States of America collaboration will be presented in detail.
