Publication on preservation of library materials in South East Asia

Preservation of Library Materials in South East Asia: issues, workshops and
institutions by Wendy Smith has just been published in the ALIA occasional
paper series. In her preface the author writes

   "This is my version of the Preservation Management Workshops
    sponsored by the Asia Pacific Special Interest Group (APSIG) of
    the Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA) held
    in Southeast Asia during the period 1992-94. The workshops were
    funded by the Australian International Development Assistance
    Bureau (AIDAB), now AusAID, through its Professional
    Associations International Development Scheme (PAIDS) program."

Workshops and seminars were held in both Southeast Asia and the
Pacific, and Wendy Smith coordinated all four courses held under the
project. The Southeast Asian courses were held at the National
Library of Thailand and the National Library of Vietnam.

Copies are available from ALIA for A$20 including postage for
