Abstract	An international conference attended by 59 participants from 12 countries was organized to present Yugoslavia as a case study to the international audience, to bring to the Yugoslav audience a variety of international experiences in library and information science education and training, and to acquaint participants with some of the new perspectives and conceptual changes that are taking place in the field. A foreword and introductory remarks are followed by six papers comprising a case study of Yugoslavia: "Library Education in Croatia: State of the Art and Trends" (Lj. Markic-Cucukovic); "An Approach to Education in Information Sciences at Universities in Croatia" (N. Prelog); "A Draft for Organizing a Postgraduate Course in Information Science at the University of Skopje" (Z. Pejova); "Postgraduate Programme of Librarianship, Documentation and Information Science at the University of Zagreb" (V.

Tudjman, M. Milas, N. Tudor-Silovic, D. Boras); and "Library and Information Science Education for Yugoslavia: An External View of Needs and Problems" (W. L. Saunders).

Cronin); (2) "Much Ado about Little--Education for Research in Library and Information Science in the Nordic Countries (S. Schwarz); (3) "Current Technological Developments and Their Impact on Education in Library and Information Science Programs in Latin America" (A.

Blazekovic); (8) "The Role of Information Science Education for Social Scientists and the Development of Information Activities" (S. Splichal); (9) "Education for New Professional Roles in the Information Society" (M. L. Dosa); (10) "Education for the Information Professions: The International Trends toward an Integrated Approach to the Education of Information Professionals" (B.
