11th International ILDS "Interlending and Document Supply Conference" in
Germany
Now Open for "Early Bird"-Registration / Official Programme Release
"Strategic Alliances and Partnerships in Interlending and Document Supply" is the
theme of the Conference which will take place from October 20th to 22nd 2009 in
Hannover, Germany.
The ILDS business has always been about a network of partners working
together in the library and publishing arenas, rather than individual libraries
working in isolation. It is abundantly clear that interactions with these and other
partners, such as aggregators and subscription agencies, are of great strategic
importance. It is therefore essential that libraries view document supply not as an
isolated line of business, but instead as a key component of the overall process
of library management. This process includes political and legal issues such as
copyright and negotiations with rights holders as well as technical developments.
The Hannover conference will also attempt to ascertain the full scope of ILDS
and plot the direction in which it is heading. It will reveal and highlight both recent
trends and foreseeable developments.
Contributions from renowned expert speakers from all five continents,
plenty of space for professional and personal exchange and discussion, as
well as library and regional sight-seeing tours into the outskirts of
Hannover will nourish both mind and soul.
All international participants are invited to visit Germany's vibrant capital Berlin or
to attend the Frankfurt International Book Fair in pre- and post-conference
arrangements which will round off their stay in Germany.
The German Federal Minister of Education and Research, Prof. Annette
Schavan, has accepted the patronage of this conference.
Early Bird Registration is now open [until June 30th, 2009].

The Conference is jointly organized by the International Federation of Library
Associations and Institutions (IFLA) and the three German National Libraries: the
German National Library of Science and Technology (TIB) in Hannover, the
German National Library of Medicine, Nutrition, Agriculture and Environment (ZB
MED) in Cologne and Bonn and the German National Library of Economics
(ZBW) in Hamburg and Kiel. All three form the strategic alliance known as
"Goportis", bundling and interlocking the libraries' long-standing know-how in the
various fields of information supply.
