Abstract
13 October 1927 letter from Isak Gustaf Alfred Collijn, Chief Librarian of the Royal Library, Stockholm and Chair of the just-established "International Library Bibliographic Committee", to Tietse Pieter Sevensma, then Director of the Library of the League of Nations. Collijn asks Sevensma if he would be interested in serving as "secretary of the Executive Committee" of the International Library and Bibliographical Committee [later the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions). An early draft of the so-called "Edinburgh Resolution" which established IFLA on 30 September 1927, is included.
