Motivated by this belief and the opinion that this non-usage of existing intellectual resources is due to the lack of adequate documentation services, both in the developing countries and in the subject area of development information, the Symposium on Documentation Planning in Developing Countries convened to study this problem. Papers were presented on the following topics: "The Role of the Institutions of Developing Countries in the Planning, Organization and Development of Documentation";"National Library and National Bibliography"; "Library Development in Nigeria"; "Documentation Centres at Scientific Institutions in Developing Countries"; "Agriculture, Research and Development Institutes, Associations"; "Policy Planning for Technical Information in Industry"; "Training of Documentalists in Developing Countries"; "The Problems of Documentation in Developing Countries"; "The Role of the State and of the Government Agencies in Developing Countries"; and "The Role of a National Information Clearinghouse for Development Aid". On the basis of the papers presented and ensuing discussions twelve recommendations were made. (JN)
