Dear Colleagues Attached is the programme for the forthcoming HMC Seminar 'Sustainable collecting policies: principles, practice and funding' to be held on Thursday 9 March at the Guildhall Library. As we hope to use the occasion to inform HLF policy on acquisitions it is likely to be of most interest to heads of repositories and senior staff. Places are still available and will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
