> Dear colleagues
>
> Whichever way you look at it <2002> is going to be a brilliant year.
>
> Every year the International Federation of Library Associations (IFLA)
> holds its conference in a different host country around the world and in
> 2002 it's the turn of the UK.
>
> This is the year The Library Association celebrates its 125th anniversary
> and IFLA its 75th. The first IFLA conference ever took place in Edinburgh,
> so it is with particular pleasure that it is welcomed back. The conference
> and exhibition will be held in the new 'armadillo' building - Glasgow's
> Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre, designed by Sir Norman Foster -
> with a breakout day in Edinburgh. (And there's the possibility of
> attending the Tattoo).
>
> The conference theme is 'Libraries for Life: Democracy, Diversity,
> Delivery'. The UK organising committee hopes to attract younger members of
> the profession, as it is a marvellous opportunity for career development,
> professional stimulation and networking with colleagues from all over the
> globe.
