IFLA in Helsinki 2012

Jyrki Hakapää

I was already excited on the forthcoming SHARP conference in Helsinki, but now comes news that the International Federation of Library Associations (IFLA) has given the World Library and Information Congress: 78th IFLA General Conference and Assembly to Helsinki in 2012. Exact dates or theme are not yet given, but check IFLA's conference news for further information once the event approaches.

SHARP might be much smaller and probably more academic organization compared to IFLA. Nevertheless it feels great to remark - or even boast -, that the next decade will begin with Helsinki as an important centre of international book culture and history activities.

  1. In the heat of the moment we forgot, that the 2010 IFLA conference has been recently moved to Gothenburg, Sweden. For more information, check:
