Bibliographic Control in South Korea

On 12th February, I presented a paper on "Bibliographic Control in South Korea" at the Achievers' Colloquium of the University Librarians Association (ULA) of Sri Lanka held at the Open University of Sri Lanka.

There, I discussed the bibliographic control initiatives in South Korea with special reference to the national bibliographic control. I also discussed possible initiatives for the national library service in Sri Lanka, as per my experiences.
