Dear Colleagues,
 
I am pleased to inform you that Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts (IGNCA) www.ignca.nic.in in collaboration with IFLA Newspaper Section is organizing IFLA International Newspaper Conference 2010 at IGNCA, New Delhi in India during 26th February to 28th February, 2010 on theme  "Digital Preservation and Access to news and views". 
 
The Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts (IGNCA) was established in 1987 as an autonomous institution under the Ministry of Culture, as a centre for research, academic pursuit and dissemination in the field of the arts. The Arts' encompass a wide range of subjects - from archaeology and anthropology to the visual and performing arts, enveloping them in a complementary and non-demarcated vision. 
 
IFLA (The International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions) is the leading international body representing the interests of library and information services and their users. It is the global voice of the library and information profession.
 
This is the first time, such an international newspaper libraries conference being organized in India. Even at national level problems and issues concerning media libraries are hardly discussed. So, this is the opportunity to all media librarians to actively participate and make this event a grand success.
 
More details regarding the conference can be had from
 
 
We take an opportunity to invite you to this International event and also request you to share your views by contributing papers and be the delegate in the conference
 
Best regards
 
Ramesh C Gaur
Conference Director
