The arrangement of this publication follows, as nearly as possible, the actual conference program. The seven sections represent the topics selected by the planning committee as areas of concentration. Each section includes a state-of-the-art paper and related talks and discussion. The topics covered are: the library of the future, file organization and conversion, file storage and access of bibliographic information; graphic storage techniques and applications, microforms, output printing for library mechanization; library communications and networks, automation of library systems; library systems analysis; and mathematical models and system design. Biographical data and a list of the conference participants are included. (AB)
