Sponsored by the leading professional bodies in publishing, bookselling and librarianship, BIC exists to promote standards in bibliographic data used and provided by the book trade and its customers.

Who should come: Librarians responsible for acquisitions, cataloguing, stock circulation and collections management of art materials, in any kind of library.
