24TH IATUL 2003 CONFERENCE 'LIBRARIES AND EDUCATION IN THE NETWORKED INFORMATION ENVIRONMENT'

摘要

The Conference took place on a university campus at Middle East Technical University Library in Ankara, Turkey from 1-5 June 2003. The Library Web site at www.lib.metu.edu.tr captures the innovation and developments described by Bulent Karasozen, Director of Libraries, in the March 2003 issue of Library Hi Tech News, Vol. 20 No. 3. It was indeed a marvelous place. Attendees enjoyed the environment, the organization, the presentations and the social events too. The presentations could be divided into three categories: those that described the state-of-the-art in libraries, those that announced some new projects and ideas of advancement, and those that were more theoretical-based supporting the Conference theme.
