CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS

The International Relations Committee (IRC) is planning an "ASK ARLIS" session
at the Vancouver conference with the theme of:

    Connect and Collaborate: Art Libraries Around the World.

ARLIS/NA and its members continue to develop strong ties with art library
organizations and librarians from around the world. The IRC is planning a
moderated discussion session whereby the ARLIS/NA membership would have an
opportunity to "connect" with international attendees to hear about their
concerns as well as developments in art libraries around the world. The
following questions will serve as a starting point for the panel:

    1. What are the greatest challenges currently facing art libraries in your
    country?

    2. Can you describe any specific projects or resources that would be of
    interest to the ARLIS/NA membership?

Following the moderated session, a social hour will enable attendees to
personally meet one another.

We would like to invite any international attendees who will be coming to
Vancouver in 1999 and who may wish to participate as a speaker in this session
to contact Leslie Abrams, Chair - International Relations Committee, by October
31, 1998.

Thank you.
