[email protected] Sedighe Shakeri M.S in Library and information science, Virtual reference librarian, National library and archives of I.R. of Iran, Tehran, Iran. [email protected] Copyright © 2015 by Azam Najafqolinejad and Sedighe Shakeri. This work is made available under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Abstract: ECO countries are considerably close in geographical and cultural terms. This significant relationship originates from religious beliefs although there are different nationalities and racial groups in this region. The historical and cultural ties originate from the last centuries of Muslim rule in Central Asia and Caucasus. That is why Eco countries have cultural and literal works in common like old Qur'ans, Divan Hafez, Golestan Sa'di, rare copies of Shahnameh and other historical resources. In addition there are some commonalities in art, handcrafts, language, literature, poetry and prose. These common backgrounds in the region indicate living symbols and evidence of a similar history and life. National libraries are responsible for preservation of documentary heritage of the country. If we provide an effective way of cooperation of national libraries then we will gather the resources together and a wealth of valuable historical and cultural collections will be revived .this paper methodology is library research. Findings showed Eco countries have necessary requirements for an intercultural relationship.

Libraries earlier tended to serve an archival function. The role of the library and librarian was to store and provide access to materials, mostly books. The common view of libraries earlier was that they were storehouses of knowledge of civilization. However, a modern library, although still serving the archival function, also has an active and assertive role in providing information to users. We live in a world in which increasing specialization is essential. Library could be a principal operator in promoting the intercommunication among the specialists. In this democratic age, all the people need a steady and balanced supply of reading material for their advancement of knowledge.

Japan must depend upon foreign oil and gas now and into the foreseeable future. It imports approximately 85% of its energy needs, the highest percentage of any major industrialized nation. Secondly, this imported oil and gas will likely come in large measure from the Middle East and, to a lesser extent, Southeast Asia. In the words of then Industry Minister and later Prime Minster Nakasone following the 1973 oil crisis, “Oil is a critical resource for Japan and dealings in oil cannot be handled by individual Japanese enterprises or traders alone without the support of the Japanese government and its people.

  • IFLA CIP Survey Report
    Survey of CIP Programs Report INTRODUCTION At the August 2001 IFLA Conference in Boston, participants of the Workshop on Publishing Industry and National Bibliographies (WPINB) discussed the importance of the relationship between the publishing community and the national libraries. Participants agreed that it was important to expand and improve this relationship. At the August 2002 IFLA Conference in Glasgow, WPINB participants further agreed that because the Cataloging in Publication programs are an important part of this relationship, a survey of CIP programs might provide information to better understand the publisher/national library relationship and from that increased understanding seek improvements. The Library of Congress agreed to deploy some of its CIP program resources to develop an online survey, and at the August 2003 IFLA Conference in Berlin, a model of the survey was approved. The Library of Congress then developed and tested the online Survey of CIP Programs and it was made available for respondents in September, 2004. The survey was available for respondents to access and complete until May, 2004 at which time the application form was closed and the data cumulated. The cumulated data appears on the IFLA CIP Survey homepage http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cipsurvey/. The data gathered provides clear evidence of the value of the CIP programs. Annually, the combined efforts of the programs produce bibliographic records for over 188,892 titles. The number of languages covered by the combined programs, over twenty-four, is also impressive. This means that libraries around the world have a vast source of records to support copy cataloging and therefore to obtain significant savings in resources that would otherwise be expended on original cataloging if the CIP programs did not exist.
