     3 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN, PROF JOHN WILLEMSE

     The University of South Africa Library in partnership with IFLA,
     the State Library and other local institutions, is delighted to
     invite you to Pretoria, the Jacaranda City, during the most
     spectacular time of the year in South Africa. This is a
     conference of firsts - the first interlending and document supply
     international conference to be held in Africa, and for many of
     the participants their first visit to South Africa and Africa,
     and their first conference of this type.

     The programme theme, "Empowering society through the global flow
     of information", promises to address issues affecting information
     professionals in both the developing and developed world. The
     globalisation of information is a trend which seemingly threatens
     to disempower the developing world. Yet, properly harnessed, it
     could be the gateway to the information superhighway - even for
     disadvantaged countries. It is essential for all of us to provide
     a better document delivery and interlending service than ever
     before. Debate, discussion, networking and strengthening existing
     ties with colleagues will be the golden thread running though the
     conference days.

     The 6th Interlending and Document Supply International Conference
     continues the tradition started in 1988. The most recent
     conferences were held in England, Canada and Denmark, and were
     each attended by approximately 200 delegates from more than 40
     different countries.

     It will be early summer in sunny South Africa - for visitors from
     the Northern Hemisphere a welcome second season of warmth and
     light. The organising committee's sincere wish is that our
     conference guests will enjoy not only the season's delights, but
     also the warm hospitality for which South Africans have been
     justly famous.

     4 ABOUT PRETORIA AND THE CONFERENCE VENUE

     PRETORIA is the administrative capital of South Africa - rich in
     museums, foreign embassies and historical attractions. There are
     several fascinating places to visit, some within walking distance
     of the hotels. When you leave our beautiful city we hope it will
     be with many pleasant memories.

     Your safety and wellbeing are of the greatest importance to the
     conference organisers, the South African Police Service, the
     Pretoria City Council and the Inner City partnership. Every
     precaution will be taken to safeguard you.

     THE CONFERENCE VENUE: The Holiday Inn Pretoria is part of the
     international Southern Sun group and is geared for excellent
