- Books in Canada, 1972. Stuart-Stubbs, Basil, Ed. Books Conference Reports Conferences Foreign Countries Libraries Publishing Industry A symposium on the Canadian book was intended to provide the delegates to the annual conference of the Canadian Library Association with a survey of current developments in Canadian authorship, book production and distribution, and to expore the relationship which library activities bore to these. This document contains some of the speeches and discussion from that symposium. The Secretary of State reviewed new federal policies in the area of publishing, and reminded librarians of their role in assisting in the realization of the objectives of these policies. The editor of "Books in Canada" summarized the situation of Canadian publishing, and offered opinions on what direction government policy might take. Addresses on the operation and effects of Scandinavia's legislation in public lending rights, on the implications of Canadian studies for future readers, on bookselling in Canada, and to the Canadian Association of Children's Librarians are included.
