***Shaping Future INFO-Structures
Feeding Data, Designing Information Services and Constructing 
ICT-Infrastructure for a Digital Natives World***

The hybrid world of printed and digital academic resources faces a rapid 
dissolution of accustomed barriers. Barriers between different physical 
manifestations of documents, pure textual information and various 
supplementary data, catalogues and databases, local holdings and 
information in a cloud, in-house and remote users, librarians and users, 
authors and publishing houses are no longer what they used to be.

The Bielefeld Conference 2012 will provide ideas to renew structures of 
documents, data, services and organisations, i.e. the Conference will 
present a vision of future INFO-Structures.

The conference is the 10th in a very successful series of conferences 
organized by Bielefeld University Library at the Bielefeld Convention 
Center since 1992. The conferences provide an essential forum for 
internationally renowned and trendsetting speakers and have gained high 
reputation among library directors and other senior library and 
information managers, who wish to discuss future strategies for academic 
libraries. The conferences regularly attract about 300 participants from 
over 30 countries, mainly from all over Europe but also from overseas.

Yours sincerely,

Director of Bielefeld University Library
