Abstract
This Report is an attempt to describe the present situation in children's librarian ship in the ASEAN region in response to the request of the Children's Libraries Sec tion of IFLA. A draft questionnaire sent from the Standing Committee of the Chil dren's Libraries Section formed the basis for information and data-gathering. How ever, the Conference theme, Library service to children in multi-ethnic and multi lingual communities, was a welcome opportunity to open a window or two to the world community interested in children's work, because this region is a unique patchwork of cultures and languages that are diverse, yet unified. Statistical tables, the questionnaire, and other additional information are available from IFLA Head- quarters, the author, or from IFLA Clearinghouses.
