Dear All,
Apologies for duplicate postings.
Some of you on LIS-MIDDLE-EAST may be aware of Library of Congress' overseas offices, particularly those in Cairo and Islamabad. LC's overseas offices serve as regional acquisition and cataloging hubs, and operate their respective cooperative acquisitions programs as a service to libraries.
Normally, reports of these two offices are presented during the Middle East Librarians Association annual meeting, currently taking place in New Orleans.
In the interest of informing our colleagues who may not attend MELA meetings or subscribe to MELANET-L, I am posting these reports here with permission.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Best wishes,
William.
