| Summary: | The paper describes the establishment in 1995 of the Nordic Association for Medical and Health Information, bringing together the five national associations from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland and Finland. Many forms of good and informal cooperation between these countries have always existed, but an association is needed to be able to officially act as a unified medical library community. Since the opening up of Eastern Europe to the West in the early 1990s, their need for professional updating and literature was paramount, and one of the current concerns of the Nordic Association is cooperation with the Baltic countries. |
