Marc Notes: Papers prepared for a workshop sponsored by the then Parliamentary Libraries Section held during the 62nd Conference of the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions in Beijing, China in August 1996; Includes bibliographical references. Publisher Marketing: The library and research services of the Asia and Pacific region are a relatively young but vibrant group. Over half of the parliamentary libraries were created after 1970, and several are among the world's largest -- those of Japan, India, Australia, and the Republic of Korea. The section on Library and Research Services for Parliaments recognizes the central role that information must play in the effective functioning of a democratic legislature. In the hope that more vital legislatures might further the progress of democracy itself, this volume of papers discusses the activities, structures, and challenges within China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Korea, Mongolia, Nepal, Sri Lanka, New Zealand, and more.
