Abstract | This document comprises two papers presented at a Round Table on Ethnic and Linguistic Minorities at the 1984 general conference of IFLA. In "Library and Information Services for Cultural Minorities: A Commentary and Analysis of a Report to the National Commission on Libraries and Information Science," E. J. Josey (United States) describes the commission, defines "ethnicity," describes the ethnic situation in the United States, and outlines the activities and findings of the Task Force on Library and Information Services to Cultural Minorities which was established in 1980. "Information Needs of Two Papuan Village Communities (Kapari and Viriolo) and Rural Development: A Study Report" by Deveni Temu (New Guinea), describes the social organization, economic activities, and community services of the two villages and reports the findings of a survey which involved face-to-face interviews and discussions with several government officers as well as 56 villagers in Kapari and 25 in Viriolo. Discussions were also conducted with leaders of sporting clubs, formal groups, and selected individuals. Survey findings cover government and village perceptions of information needs, government and village modes of information delivery, and possible solutions to identified problems. (THC) |
