摘要：THE interest of the Medical Library Association in the medical profession abroad, especially in medical libraries and librarianship, has been evident in a number of ways over the years, but it took definite shape in 1947 with the appointment of a Committee on International Co-operation. This Committee undertook to explore ways in which the Association could be of greatest help to the profession in the foreign field. The result of the Committee's investigation pointed up the need for assistance in building up the medical collections of the countries affected by the war or general postwar developments and the need for training medical librarians in those countries. It is with the latter that we concern ourselves here.
