Greetings!
It is a privilege to be associated with such an exciting venture
as ICIMSS. With the globalisation of information and information networks,
it is important that information professionals and educators have the opportunity
to cross national boundaries and come together in the designing of new curricula
for meeting the needs of a dynamic and changing information profession.
This initiative is unique and will be a learning experience for all concerned.
With best regards,
Micheline
