Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Proposed White House Conference on Library and Information Sciences: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Education of the Committee on Labor and Public Welfare, United States Senate, Ninety-Third Congress, First Session
Senator pell. The hearing of the Subcommittee on Education on Senate Joint Resolution 40 will come to order. The measure we are discussing today will authorize and request the President to call a White House Conference on Library and Information Sciences In 1976. It occurred to me that during the bicentennial year, the Nation should celebrate one of our great cultural strengths - our system Of public and private libraries.
The White House Conference on Libraries would succinctly Show the accomplishments Of our library system in the past and chart the course for the future. Today' s witnesses will discuss the accomplish ments Of the past, the need for a White House Conference, its cost, and what we hope to achieve by such a conference.
At this point I order printed In the record a copy of Senate Joint Resolution 40, comments by the Library of Congress, and the com ments by the administration on this legislation.
