Keeping older stuff

The National Library of Australia is hosting an international newspaper conference, organised jointly by the IFLA Newspapers Section and the National Library of Australia, in February 2005. The conference's aims are:
  • The promotion of awareness of newspaper collections in libraries in IFLA Member countries, and in Australia and in South East Asian Countries.
  • The need to publicise measures to promote access to newspaper collections
  • The importance of newspapers for researchers of all ages and backgrounds
  • To emphasise good practice for the storage of original newspapers
  • To raise awareness of the need to copy newspapers
  • To exchange information regarding projects, ongoing and planned, to digitise older newspapers.
For more information, and to register for the conference, please go to http://www.nla.gov.au/initiatives/meetings/newspapers/about.html. Posted by belinda at December 13, 2004 08:42 AM
