More exchanges of this kind are clearly needed in the future. On a personal level I was pleased to have the opportunity to discuss ways of increasing cooperation between the Library of Congress and ALA with ALA immediate past president Betty Turock, who also journeyed to Vologda for the conference. I was also glad to see again our old friend Vladimir Zaitsev, director of the Russian National Library and president of the newly reorganized Russian Library Association. It was no less gratifying to find that conversations begun in Vologda among the three of us could continue easily at the ALA Annual Conference in New York three weeks later. By James H.
