The complete report on the conference on
Interlibrary Communications and Information 
Networks, Airlie House, Warrenton, Virginia,
September 28-October 2, 1970.

Sponsored by the United States Office of
Education and the American Library Association

Interlibrary Communications and
Information Networks presents. . .
■ 31 outstanding papers on available and theoretical 
methods of extending library service capabilities.
■ Definitive summary of plenary sessions,
working group reports, and recommendations.

Interlibrary Communications and
Information Networks confronts five major 
problems and proposes solutions . . .
1. Is there a true need for a national
information network?
2. What are the functions and services best suited 
to a national network?
3. How rapidly can new technology be applied 
and used in network operations?
4. How will national networks affect
libraries and information centers — socially, legally, 
and administratively?
5. What can be learned about a proposed national 
network from existing specialized networks.

Here is a work of lasting value to all librarians 
and information scientists concerned with the future 
of information services agencies.
