10th Interlending and Document Supply Conference

Resource Sharing for the Future – Building Blocks to Success (Singapore, 29th-31st October 2007)

Abstract

The IFLA Section for Interlending and Document
Supply organized its 10th conference at
the National Library of Singapore, a new and
fabulous building that hosts a real library for the
knowledge-based society. The main subject – interlending
and document supply – has a much
broader scope today, so the subject of the conference
was not only resource sharing and interlending,
but also copyright laws, establishment
of cooperation between different library systems,
interlending of electronic books, user needs and
transformation of modern libraries, case studies
from all over the world concerning library networking
and cooperation and discussion about
the vision of a global library service.
