The Swedish IAML Branch is celebrating its 60:th anniversary

The Swedish IAML Branch is celebrating its 60:th anniversary this year by arranging a conference 18-19 April in Stockholm. "Svenska musikbiblioteksföreningen" (SMBF) is one of the oldest national branches within IAML. The first Swedish IAML President, Folke Lindberg, was appointed already in 1959. Two more Swedes have more recently held the position, namely Anders Lönn and Veslemöy Heintz.

Sweden has hosted IAMLs annual conference three times: 1962 in Stockholm and Uppsala, 1986 in Stockholm and 2006 in Gothenburg. Today SMBF has 117 members - 74 individual and 43 institutions.
