Guidelines designed to be used in planning non-degree courses in information science and services are described. Courses referred to would contribute to improvement of the role and place of information professionals, information work, and information science in servicing personnel in scientific and technical fields, particularly in developing countries. The needs and interests of different audiences will determine important choices referred to in the guidelines. Checklists to verify the completeness of the plan and to suggest means for evaluating the experience are included. Sections cover planning, organizing, implementing, and evaluating the course. Sample course announcements, application forms, activities and time tables, participant evaluation report, budget/financial report, and checklists are appended. (Author/KP)
