CO‐ORDINATION OF DOCUMENTATION: The PROBLEM MET In WRITING A HISTORY OF AN INDUSTRY

Abstract

The Furniture Group is Aslib's newest group and this is its first contribution to a conference. It is a group of libraries, national and local, public and private, having in common their interest in making available to all comers as much information as possible on all aspects of their subject, furniture. The Group is too young to be able to point to much firm achievement yet but it hopes to secure its aims by encouraging each co‐operating library to develop its own resources to the full and then, possibly by means of a union catalogue, to make those resources easily usable by all interested people. The Group decided that its introduction could best be effected by a paper which would show the need for its efforts, leaving the description of its work to a future conference.
