IFLA Goes to Buenos Aires in 2004PRESS RELEASE : for immediate release IFLA Headquarters During the closing session of the IFLA conference in Bangkok last month, it was announced that IFLA would hold its 2004 conference in Buenos Aires. It was also announced that the 2006 conference would be held in Seoul. "It was a very difficult decision" said Nancy John, Chair of IFLA's Conference Planning Committee. "Both the finalists had made excellent bids. In the end the chance of holding our conference for the first time in Latin America was the unique selling point that won it for Buenos Aires." The other finalist was Seoul. The commitment of the Korean government to the success of the conference was an especially attractive feature of this bid. The bid was so good, that the Executive Board decided to offer the 2006 conference to Seoul. Following usual IFLA practice, expressions of interest to hold the conference in 2005 are now open.
