Conference Information
In her presentation about the Rethinking Resource Sharing Initiative given last year in Pretoria, South Africa, Kim Baker, Chair of the IFLA Document Delivery & Resource Sharing Standing Committee stated that:
“Libraries need to stop looking at designing processes and systems to suit librarians – they need to adapt and modify their processes and systems to suit the user. This new paradigm thus STARTS with the user, and not the other way around.”
This statement encompasses precisely the focal point of the IFLA Satellite Meeting “Rethinking Access to Information: Evolving Perspectives on Information Content and Delivery” which is jointly organized by the following IFLA Sections:
- Document Delivery and Resource Sharing
- Acquisition and Collection Development
- Reference and Information Services
The conference will be a unique opportunity for delegates from the US, Canada and countries around the Globe to come together and learn about innovative ideas and how libraries are rethinking their services.
