BI-International

About us

BI-International supports library and information experts to extend their professional experiences internationally with financial funding for professional vitis, active conference attendances and study trips in Germany, and to discover new perspectives and establish new professional relationships.

Since 2000

Bibliothek & Information International (BI-International) is the standing committee of Bibliothek & Information Deutschland (BID), the Federal Association of German Library and Information Associations, to promote international professional exchange.

The Board

The commission consists of representatives of the member associations of Bibliothek & Information Deutschland (BID).
The currently eight members are delegates from BIB, dbv, VDB, ekz and Goethe-Institute. They appoint a spokesperson from amongst themselves to serve a three-year term.
