Abstract
- Papers on library buildings and equipment which were presented at the 1986 International Federation of Library Associations (IFLA) conference include: (1) "Changes in Library Buildings" (H. Faulkner-Brown, United Kingdom), which defines a desirable library building as being flexible, compact, accessible, extendable, varied, organized, comfortable, constant in environment, secure, and economic, and considers the effects of social and technological change on library buildings; (2) "Construction d'un Centre de Documentation Scientifique et Technique" (The Construction of a Center for Scientific and Technical Documentation) (J. P. Sakoun, France), which discusses the need for such a center in France, the decision of the French government in 1984-85 to establish a center using the Centre Nationale de Recherches Scientifiques (CNRS) as a base, the architectural competition to design a building in Nancy for the new center, and the winning design; and (3) "Modern Technology and Traditional Methods of Library Activity," by V. M. Krasil'shchikova of the USSR, which discusses the unity of traditional "book" technology and modern technology in libraries in the Soviet Union. Architectural drawings for the CNRS center are included. (KM)
