contents IFLA General Conference, 1986. Management and Technology Division. Section: Information Technology. Papers. Access to Information Databases Developed Nations Foreign Countries Information Technology International Organizations Library Associations Library Automation Library Materials Multilingual Materials Online Systems Optical Disks Shared Library Resources Four papers on information technology were presented at the 1986 International Federation of Library Associations (IFLA) conference. In the paper "Optical Disc Technology Used for Large-Scale Data Base," Naoto Nakayama (Japan) considers the rapid development of optical technology and the role of applications such as optical discs, optical fiber cables, and optical printers in structuring large-scale database systems. Seven figures supplement the text. In a report on the IFLA Pre-Conference Seminar on Automated Systems for Access to Multi-Lingual and Multi-Script Library Materials, Stephen W. Massil of the United Kingdom summarizes papers concerning the automation of non-Roman scripts. National and international standards, computer developments that fail to take library requirements into proper account, and the need for increased dialog between North America and East Asia are noted as areas of concern. "The Australian Bibliographic Network" by Warren Horton of Australia discusses the establishment of a national online bibliographic facility based on cooperative participation and the facility's impact on shared development of Australia's library services. Finally, in "The Role and Use of Information Technologies and Databases for the Development of Information Management in Japan," Hisamichi Yamazaki of Japan considers the application of leading-edge technologies to information management and documentation.
