ARLIS/Norden & IFLA-ALS Conference in Oslo, 12-13 August 2005

The annual conference of ARLIS/Norden usually takes place in May or June, but has this year been moved to Friday 12th and Saturday 13th of August, to coincide with the annual IFLA conference that is held in Oslo from the 14th to the 18th of August. Part of the ARLIS/Norden conference will be a joint arrangement with IFLA Art Libraries Section (ALS).

The theme of the conference is:
Organizations in Change: Effects on Art Libraries.

Mergers and re-organizations within the world of art institutions have a substantial impact on art libraries, their collections, services and the competence of the librarian. We see that the development has been from small units with in-depth knowledge within a limited subject field towards a broader, more general approach to knowledge, comprising a wider variety of subjects and tasks. Libraries become documentation centres serving a larger public. We aim to highlight what impact this development has on art libraries, their parent institutions, the users and the professional skills of the art librarian.

On Friday 12th from 10am to 17pm, a satellite meeting will take place at the Oslo University library, followed by a formal dinner in the evening.
On Saturday morning ARLIS/Norden will hold its annual meeting. After the meeting all ARLIS and ALS participants are invited to a light lunch followed by an excursion.
We are also having some other arrangements during the IFLA week for ALS and ARLIS/Norden members attending the IFLA conference, see the programme.

Any questions about the conference should be addressed to the chairman of the Planning Committe: Eva Eide on:
