Copyright 1973 by CEDA FOREWORD
The Third World has fallen behind not only in the race for higher income. It also happens to be underdeveloped in available information. Indeed, lack of available information may, perhaps, be regarded as good' . anindicator as any of inderdevelopment. As in other countries of the Third World, this scarcity in Nepal is -iree-fold.First, it is the dearth of information per se, Second, it is the lack of knowledge regarding what in formation is available. Third, it is the lack of knowledgv regarding where availab]6 information is to be found for use,
Clearly, tie firstof these is tied more vith the process of development itself., and does not ordinarily come within the scope of a -documentation centre": it is not a generator of primary information, but a "processor" 3f * information. coming out from elsewhere in an organized way. As such, the role ofa "documentation centre" needs to be haidly emphasized. A coun try like ours cannot afford not to use available infornation. But this requires knowing what information is avafible and where this can be found. We are quite a few steps ahead regarding the first of these requirements, There exists ,Ianumber of bibliographiestn Nepal and a few organizations, including this Documentation Centre, have been bringing o't bibliographies on a conti nuing basis. We ar , however, almost totaily ignorant about the second !C * CquirenIent: where is the available inforniation on Nepal to be found ? All that e ists in this respect is a paragraph or two written at the end of a few books (such as in Fisher and Rose, "The Politics of Nepal", and Reed and Reed, "Aepal imTransition",) Obviously, this is no Substitute for a conipen dium that provides Iguile to informpation sources and resources on Nepal. It is to fill this la(una that this volume has been intended. In fact, users of this volune riay find it goinga little beyond simply fulfilling this need, Thus, this volumei may be regarded as having broken newv grounds. It Is with pride we%-present this publication.

(c) Non-Governmental Publications wihin Nepal: Books and periodical articles produced within Nepal ,.re under little control, except for tile efforts of' the Madan t Memorial Library fIor literature and of CEIDA for social science materials. Book store catalogs furnish some access to this material, and the Library of Congrcss "'Accessions List" gives a small sampling. Scientitic nmaterials are under no control, except f'or Western and Japanese botanical publications. (d) Foreign general publications: Books and periodical ai iict., of' a general nature on Nepal are under bibliographic control oLtside Nepal. and most trade books can be purchased in the bookstores of Kathniland,. Unfortunocly, more books and article., by persons discovering Nepal for the first ti ,iedo not add. qualitatively, to Nepal's information resources. (e) Foreign Academic and other substantial pulb]ications: Articles, books, reports, and thesis by forcien scholars and researchers are under satis factory bibliographic control outside Nepal: unfortunatcl , articles are publislc! in obscure and acadcnic journals. but tend to be of little use within Ncpad, where they are not knOWn and not recied. Also, it is extremely difficult to obtain a copy of a Ph. 1). thesis producLt outside of Nepal. Researcher5 .ho ise Nepal as the1basis of their acalClic career and research ol'ten forget they can -dd it)Nepal's inlormation base by making as ailable their publicatimn. It wa,; found after the Seminar on Ilcolog\ ofl-ropical i-figl!ands that participants Frot abroad knew lmore abhout the ,ciences in Nepal than was known in tile rountry. Thus, current and immediate information and iibliographic needs can be summeriied: I) Access to and control of 4\MG ind assistance agency docun;ents; (2) Cooperation of foreign scholars and wricrs ii making available materials to Nepal; and (3) Control of, within Nepal. social wience, cultural and scientific materials.

Included is a bibliography of materials on library science in Nepal, and a list of books oni librarianship in developing countries and in Asia. Library resources within Nepal is still in a fundamental stage of deve + .: = lopment, The National Education Plan, for. example, did- not adequately outline policies for the role of libraries in cducation. Library services within Nepal today can be characterized as a group of uncoordinated libraries hampered bj the lack of systematic planning on the national level and the lack of a sense of the role libraries can play within the institutional level. The existing national library does not serve as an adequate model for coordinating library development, Along with a functioning university library, there has bee a growth of small special 'ibraries which operate in relative isolation. Special libraries do have advantages in a developing Country; being limited in scope - hey can concentrate their resourccs within a specific subject area. But as yetl libraries do not play the active and effective role they could in collecting and disseminating information for educational,-social, and economic development. . The collection of information about Nepal is a valuable asset fo Nepal, and although libraries are passive change agents, they do have an important role o play in a developing country on many levels and in many sectors; they are important ineducation, i preserving the country's cIltura heritage, and in development itself. The development process generates many reports and dOCuneints and these documents along with the works of foreign scholars, tend to be re' ':VCly unknown and generally unavailable in Nepal. The decay rate of development literature is high, and these valuable reports.. often disappear as rapidly as they are generated. Periodical literatUre Within Nepal also tends to be fugitive, and many articles of value disa,-pear- prematurely. Without information systems designed to collect, p'reserve, and--- 33 make available tlis,literature, the usef'Il'tne, Or thu+, documents to the ctmn try and it, doehopnwilt is or nlited d,,urtfaon. l)cclopimnt requir,:s the necessary literature whcn and Oi-rec it k appropriatc cspccilall, or idea, which li;.tc appeared a head of their time and hicif] iledultt of "ollt file Iblder.

W~e have tried to include all import~ant libraries tbr researchers interested in studying Nepal, and somne of the other special librarics w~hichr exist now as functioning' libraries. Somei of these libraries,, while small, are a valuable base for special information resources whithin Nepal. .We have not included iny of" the foreign information agencies or reading rooms; a list ofthese can be found in 'ACatalogfohr Nepa'. Nor' have we listed school or college libraries as these collection are often smiall and poor. We are Sure that many, 11MG ministries; departments and agencies do have collections of documents for the' use of their staff, but these collections tend to be part, of an informal iiiformation network, and are not organized on any scientifie basis. 'There are substantial collections of documents in the. Ministry of Law, Foreign Mi°istrY and MinistryofFinance on their concerned areas, but tie use of their collection is severely restrictedto non-stal' mcmbrs or individual research scholars; with some exceptions thc restriction is jtsfi-i able because of' the sensit.e nature of some oflicial doc ents for a.certain period. lowever, it is to be hoped that these collections of books and docu ments will, with time, become fully operating special libraries of' use to those in quest of' information for integrated research on various disciplines , There are also, scattered about in Kathmandu local reading rooms, which are of value,' currently, only as the basis of future public libraries. If we have'missed any libraries, we would like to receive informatio. about them for future editions of this publication. 4 4e~dirllif6 : ! S ; : .
