VI A VIEW FROM BANGLADESH

Abstract

An interlending system is vital for the development and support of literacy, education and research, and of industry and the economy generally. Interlending takes place between certain groups of libraries, but progress is hampered by the lack of a strong national library to give leadership in shared acquisition and interlending policies. Another difficulty arises because different types of library come under different government departments, with no co‐ordinating agency. Progress will depend on systematic co‐operation between libraries.
