"The Public Library Service: IFLA/UNESCO Guidelines for
Development" have been framed to provide assistance to librarians
in any situation to develop an effective public library service
meeting the needs of their local community.
Philip Gill, Chair of the IFLA Working Group which prepared
these new guidelines, said: "The publication of these new
IFLA/UNESCO Guidelines for Public Libraries, following wide
consultation, present librarians worldwide with standards and
guidelines which will help them develop public libraries relevant
to the information age. In this exciting and complex information
world, it is vitally important for those in search of knowledge,
information and creative... experience that they succeed. I believe
that these guidelines will help public librarians around the world
meet that challenge."
Inclusion of examples of provision from around the world
provides snapshots of what is happening in public libraries in many
different countries and a glimpse of imaginative solutions to
specific challenges.
These guidelines are essential reading for everyone involved in
the provision of public libraries and will become an invaluable
reference tool for public library development and planning.
