Abstrakt: This article provides information on the 49th annual Seminar on the Acquisition of Latin American Library Materials (SALALM) held at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on June 4 to 8, 2004. The conference, sponsored by the University of Michigan Library along with the University of Michigan Latin American and Caribbean Studies Center, focused on the acquisition and processing of Latin American materials and their delivery via reference and bibliographic services. Monographs, serials, official publications, publications from non-governmental organization's films and videos databases and indexes were examined and discussed. The opening session included welcoming remarks from SALALM president Angela Carreño of the Bobst Library at New York University. William Gosling, University of Michigan librarian, encouraged participants to use the resources of the University of Michigan and feel at home in Ann Arbor. Every year, during the opening session, SALALM presents an award named for the famous Latin American bibliographer Jose Toribio Medina. The award acknowledges scholarship and publication in the area of reference and bibliography. Winners receive certificates recognizing their publications, a $250 honorarium and the esteem of their colleagues.
