- An MCB &Library Link IFLA '98 workshop

The MCB and Library Link workshop held at IFLA '98 was a great success.  
It was attended by over 70 people and resulted in three simultaneous
debates on the introduction and support for Internet and CD-ROM based
product in libraries, and by library users - along with other pertinent
issues concerning electronic information.

Three key discussion areas were drawn from the workshop:

1. The Value Added Role for Future Librarians and Information Professionals
2. Information Technology in Developing Countries
3. The Future of Electronic Journals

To join the debate, gain access to the views of the 70 people who attended
the workshop, along with the countless librarians and information
professionals who posted comments prior to the workshop, and make your
voice heard at the library link discussion forum at
