Mary Fahnestalk, W SU ’s consultant to the Yemen 
Arab Republic, Rita Fisher, W SU ’s consultant to 
Jordan, Donna Hanson, University of Idaho’s con­
sultant to Pakistan, and Alice Spitzer, W SU ’s con­
sultant to Indonesia commented on the practical 
aspects and technical problems of working as a li­
b ra ria n  in these developing cou ntries. W S U ’s 
Elaine Brekke chaired a panel discussion on library 
support services provided to project personnel by 
the home campus library.

Maureen Pastine, director of W ashington State 
University Libraries, emphasized the im portant 
role that librarians can play by working on these 
development projects. Most land-grant universities 
are actively involved in overseas development proj­
ects and the universities’ libraries have a com m it­
ment to support these endeavors.

Tw o bibliographies were prepared especially for 
workshop participants, L ivin g a n d  W orking O ver­
sea s: A S e le c te d  B ib lio g r a p h y  and T h e  G lo b a l 
C h allen g e: In tern ation al D ev elo p m en t (a bibliog­
raphy of films and video). Displays included books 
and articles related to the theme of the workshop. 
For those unable to attend, a videotape of the

workshop was made and will be available to inter­
ested persons both on- and off-campus.

Participation in the workshop was regional and 
included librarians from universities that are mem­
bers of the Consortium for International Develop­
ment. Among those attending were librarians from 
the University of Idaho, Oregon State University, 
Kansas State U niversity, University of Arizona, 
Gonzaga University, and California State Poly­
technic University, Pomona.

T h e  w orkshop was su pported by W SU  L i ­
braries, the W SU  International Program Develop­
m en t O ffic e  and th rou gh  a M em orand u m  of 
U nd erstand ing/Program  Su p p ort G ra n t from  
W SU . There was interest in expanding the topics 
covered and developing a future conference on li­
brarians and international development.

If you would be interested in contributing to 
such a conference in the near future, or would like
