Message from the Mayor of Gothenburg

It is with great pleasure Gothenburg welcomes delegates attending the IFLA World Library and Information Congress in August 2010.

Gothenburg has proved to be an excellent city for conventions with a centrally located, top modern convention centre designed to meet the requirements of the 21st century. Gothenburg has hosted many international meetings with great success thanks to its small-town atmosphere, unique cooperation and joint vision between politicians, the business community and the universities and I am confident that our city will prove ideal for the Congress.

I would be happy to welcome the delegates of the IFLA World Library and Information Congress to a friendly and clean city with a relaxed atmosphere. Situated by the sea and surrounded by pristine countryside, Gothenburg offers great opportunities for delegates to unwind and enjoy the unspoilt nature of Sweden.

Welcome to Gothenburg in 2010.

Yours sincerely

Jörgen Linder
Lord Mayor
City of Gothenburg, Sweden
