In August 1993, the IFLA annual conference was held in Barcelona. As in the case of last conference, the author makes mention of the art libraries he visited during the conference. Before proceeding to this topic, the features of the IFLA conference will be summerized according to the activities of the IFLA Section of Art Libraries. The features include the well organized sessions of the satellite meeting, election of the new.standing committee members and officers of the Section, new styles of the general session, renewed discussions of the education for art librarianship in this and future sessions.
The author had a happy chance to visit several art libraries of the museums, including the specific museums founded in commemoration of great artists such as Joan Miró and Antoni Tàpies, and was deeply impressed with their high quality and full openness to the public. For further development of art documentation in Spain, extremely important roles are surely expected to be played by the General Library of Art History, and art librarians' group in Catalonia.
