Fourteen papers, presented at a NATO-sponsored workshop held in September 1998 in Samarkand, address development trends in the transition countries of Central Asia. Workshop goals were to stimulate industry RandD for "small medium enterprises" and foster cooperation between East and West; participants included researchers from the science, technology, and business sectors in Europe, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Turkey, Ukraine, the US, and Uzbekistan. The papers are in English, sometimes to their detriment as a result of inexpert translation. c. Book News Inc.

Comprehensive internationalization is a strategic process that seeks to align initiatives for globally-oriented and internationally-connected programs that is essential for the attainment of global competitiveness and qualification recognition. Internationalization of higher education has been in broad debate among professionals, and procedures and processes towards desired quality of library and information science (LIS) academic standards are still a continuing discussion among stakeholders. Internationalization of Library and Information Science Education in the Asia-Pacific Region is a critical scholarly resource that examines the internationalization of LIS education to promote, develop, and facilitate engagement and mobility of library professionals around the world with a focus on the Asia-Pacific region. This book can open doors for greater global engagement and cooperation among LIS schools and professional governing bodies in countries that can mutually benefit and propel development to be on par with European and North American counterparts. While highlighting various topics such as global engagement, curriculum design, and knowledge sharing, this book is ideal for academicians, library professionals, instructional designers, researchers, curriculum designers, librarians, educators, and students.
