We study compactifications of type IIB supergravity on Calabi-Yau threefolds. The resulting low energy effective Lagrangian is displayed in the large volume limit and its symmetry properties - with specific emphasis on the SL(2,Z) - are discussed. The explicit map to type IIA string theory compactified on a mirror Calabi-Yau is derived. We argue that strong coupling effects on the worldsheet break the SL(2,Z).
