Rogers, A. Robert: Ten Years of the István Gombocz Scholarship

during his studies in 1980/81. Sándor Szabó, of AGROINFORM, Budapest, included research on information gathering patterns of agricultural scientists at the Ohio State University as part of his program leading to the Certificate of Advanced Studies in August 1982. Mihály Pálvölgyi, recently promoted to associate professor in the Library Science Department at the Teachers' Training College in Szombathely, concentrated on pedagogical research (including visits to the library schools of the University of Chicago and the University of Toronto) and received the Certificate of Advanced Studies in August 1983. It is very fitting that the tenth recipient of the Scholarship is none other than István Gombocz, Jr., who is pursuing his studies at Kent during 1983/84.* July of 1982 was a joyous occasion when a gracious invitation from the AHL made it possible for me to visit Hungary to renew friendships with former students, to make new friends in the AHL and to visit some Hungarian libraries and library schools. I hope these activities, and the ongoing results of awarding the Scholarship, will do something to stimulate the flow of information about libraries across national and linguistic boundaries and contribute to increased international understanding and goodwill. i * Changes in positions of former students since the manuscript was submitted Árpád Kiss, Librarian, Hungarian Geological Institute, Budapest; Dr. Ilona Kovács, Head, Research Management, National Széchenyi Library; Dr. Tamás Rónai, Library Consultant, Centre for Library Science and Methodology; Gábor Stiegrad, Head, Programming Department, National Technical Information Centre and Library; (Ed.) 15
